Bluebell Railway 50th Anniversary.

August 7th 2010 was the 50th Anniversary of the Bluebell Railway in Sussex. Radio Redhill was there to capture the event. We spoke to the driver of the first Bluebell train in 1960, Jack Owen. We also chatted to a Guard, Firemen, Station Master and railway enthusiast Bob Symes. Our interviews are now available on the listen again page on this website.






Radio Redhill to Stream Online.

After our successful birthday celebrations in April broadcasting online, Radio Redhill will be starting full time online streaming from 1st July 2010. Listeners will be able to hear our programmes in stereo using a computer, internet radio or a 3G mobile phone.

Station Engineer, Ian Wilson, said "Online is a high quality way for patients on the ward to listen with mobile phones, or staff and patient relatives to listen at home on their computer or internet radio. The stereo sound available is something that just isn't possible with the ward headsets or with 1431am"

Although the stream will be available worldwide, one thing won't change - our programmes will continue to be for the patients and staff of the East Surrey Hospital, although we hope other people will enjoy listening too.






Radio Redhill on AM and Online.

Radio Redhill broadcasts to the patients and staff of the East Surrey Hospital. For 16 days in April this is changing. We are going to be broadcasting to Redhill, Reigate and Horley online as well as the East Surrey Hospital on AM.

From our studios in the East Surrey Hospital, we are bringing you local features, local news, competitions and interviews with local celebrities.

Listen through until April 25th for our 'Community Focus' features and a chance to win a year's subscription to TV Times magazine.

We are grateful of the support from the Community Foundation for Surrey.
