Welcome to the Official website of Auckland Hospital Radio. We broadcast 24 hours a day, 365 days a year to the patients, staff and visitors of Bishop Auckland General Hospital.

We are a radio service entirely staffed by volunteers and self funded through fundraising and donations, and have been broadcasting to Bishop Auckland General Hospital for over thirty years.

We have just designed this new site and we think its looking great. Please be patient though there is much more to come.

Auckland Hospital Radio starts its 30th birthday celebrations this weekend with the 60 Hour Marathon Broadcast. From 9am, Friday 4th July to 9pm Sunday 6th July we will be broadcasting live. 

Laura Robson, CDDFT NHS Trust's Director of Nursing has described Auckland Hospital Radio as being the "flagship" hospital radio service for the trust. To find out more about our birthday celebrations and marathon broadcast click here.
