Step inside Milton Keynes Hospital Radio for an exclusive studio tour, explore our broadcasting history, and try your hand at presenting.

From Vinyl to Digital: The Evolution of Milton Keynes Hospital Radio

Milton Keynes Hospital Radio is opening its doors for a rare behind-the-scenes look at a station that has been part of the hospital community for more than forty years. Usually closed to the public, our studio’s will be accessible exclusively for Heritage Open Days, offering visitors an insight into a broadcasting world normally heard but not seen.

Throughout the day, our volunteer team, who run every aspect of the station, will guide visitors through the space where programmes are created, music is selected, and patient requests come to life. Visitors will learn how the station began, how it has adapted to changing technology, and how a dedicated group of volunteers continue to keep it running.

As visitors explore the studio’s, they’ll see the equipment we use, discover how shows are planned and produced, and hear stories from decades of broadcasting within the hospital. Our volunteers will share their experiences of presenting, producing, and supporting the station, highlighting the passion and teamwork that keep Milton Keynes Hospital Radio on air 24/7.

Visitors will also have the chance to step up to the mic and try presenting for themselves, guided by experienced members of the team.

Tours will run every 30 minutes and are limited to 5 persons per tour.
