Your Local Hospital Radio Station
Radio Northwick Park is one of the most forward thinking and technologically advanced hospital radio stations in the UK.
We are a charity run by volunteers to provide patient visiting and a broadcast entertainment service to the North West London Hospitals NHS Trust. We are registered charity number 274806 and a member of the Hospital Broadcasting Association (HBA).
Northwick Park Hospital was built in the mid 1960′s and the radio station started in 1971. We have grown in strength and numbers since our opening 40 years ago and became one of the first hospital radio stations to become 24 hours and also one of the first to broadcast digitally online. We now have over 100 volunteers who talk to patients, collect requests and help make the station such a success year in and year out. We will always make sure your stay in hospital is as enjoyable as it can be.
