To celebrate Hospital Broadcasting Week, we’re holding an Open Evening on Monday 25 March from 6.00pm-8.00pm. Whether you’re a previous listener or just interested, come along to the station on Level B of Rotherham General Hospital to meet the team and have a look around. It’s a great opportunity for anyone thinking about volunteering to find out more about what’s involved.

Representatives from the Rotherham Armed Forces Community Covenant were at the Rotherham General Hospital today conducting a survey. Col McPherson spoke with Mel Jaques to explain they are looking for anyone in Rotherham who has served in the Armed Forces. The Community Covenant are seeking funding to provide additional services for Forces veterans and this survey will help them understand what services are needed. Listen to the interview

The survey ends on 28th February 2013, telephone 07852287799 or email sbenthambates@ctp.org.uk if you have served in the Armed Forces and want to take part in the survey.

The Hospital Chaplain, Rev Joan Ashton, joins Mel Jaques on Christmas Morning to wish everyone a wonderful Christmas.
