Grampian Hospital Radio

Project 501

Volunteers at Grampian Hospital Radio (GHR) broadcast to patients throughout Aberdeen Royal Infirmary and visit wards to collect requests.  NHS Grampian Charity funding enabled GHR to move to purpose built studios at Westburn Cottage on the Foresterhill Site.  Chairman of GHR,Neil Fraser said,

“With more space, this has created opportunities for us to broadcast and inform the patients throughout the NHS Grampian site and also to the Children’s Hospital. We are exploring even more ways to allow specialist programmes to be prepared and broadcast throughout the wider NHS Grampian region. We are able to create a link between the patient and their family and friends, back home, and to deliver the beneficial effects of music to those in the healthcare environment”.
