HRB celebrated the 35th anniversary of the start of the first
hospital radio service at Basingstoke's hospital in several ways.
We repeated some of our 30th birthday party from 5 years ago
which featured interviews with ex-members and a bit of reminiscing
about the past.
Then, someone who was one of the founding members of the
station back in the early 70s, Phil Farlow, returned to guest host a show on
HRB. He presented "Sunday Best", a selection of all sorts of
different music.
Finally, our neighbours at Hospital Radio Reading came to see
us in their Golden Jaguar car which they are using to promote their fiftieth
anniversary later this year. Phil interviewed Norman and Gerard from the
station live on air.
Here are the photos of the day...

Want
to join us but not present a programme? We are looking for
new members to be ward visitors, to go around the wards during
the day and collect requests to play on the evening's
shows. Interested? Click

A new era
for HRB is coming soon. At the end of July, we'll be
moving out of our existing building and replacing it with a
brand new building. More info and pictures here
