Stoke Mandeville Hospital Radio

Paul Ronson

I'm Paul, a relatively seasoned campaigner in radio. I started my broadcasting career back in the 70's with a five year stint on Manchester Hospital Radio which broadcast to around 18 hospitals in the Manchester area.

I then went on to work on Manchester's first commercial station Piccadilly Radio for three years starting in the news room and then presenting my own night time show. My claim to fame was discovering Howard Jones who played live piano in the studio prior to getting a recording deal. Lots of the presenters that I worked with went on to become household names like Chris Evans, Steve Penk and Richard Keys.

Nowadays I run a business that's putting large screens into advertising applications on the street, in rail stations, airports, shopping malls and anywhere that advertisers want to reach you while you're on the move.

It's great to be back on air at Stoke Mandeville Hospital Radio presenting the Smooth Jazz and Sounds of Philadelphia show every Wednesday night between 7 and 8pm, and to see how studio technology has moved on into the digital age. Make sure you call the studio or drop us a text so we can play you your favourite song.
