I just wanted to say thank you for all the work you have done to help me put together the film screening. I came alive on Friday Night. And thanks for your interest in me and my passion for Disability Rights.

Find Your Frequency

I signed up on Open Day. I’d never done anything like it before but I got hooked to radio. It’s been the best year of my life. I’ve met so many brilliant people and it’s changed my idea of what I want to do in my life. I do everything I can at Chapel FM.

Next Generation—Broadcasting

07/10/2017
My daughter came along to ELFM first. When I realised what a good time she was having I thought I want a bit of that so I joined up too. Now I’ve got my own music show with loads of guests and live sessions. It’s a real buzz.
