Say hello to the newest member of the Wave team. This is Hannah, who will be rooting out all the local news and events and reporting them for our listeners.

Hannah is a freelance actor and runs her own theatre company, she has always wanted to be involved with local radio; ‘there’s just something about it I adore’ she says. As well as researching and producing the hourly local news bulletin, Hannah will be out and about at local events with her microphone, and you may even hear her appearing on a show or two.

If you have a news or local interest story for Hannah, email her on newsdesk@wavewsm.co.uk.

We were recently contacted by the mum of a young lad who was extremely keen to see how a real radio station works. Always happy to oblige, we were able to arrange for Ryan to not only see the studio, but take part in a live show.

Presenter Gary agreed to have both Ryan and his mum in on a recent Sunday Funday broadcast and, as you can see, Ryan was excited to be able to ‘have a go’ on the desk. We later had a lovely message of thanks from Ryan’s mum, saying he was so inspired by his visit, he’s now thinking he’d like to do his own show!

We hope to hear your ‘demo’ soon Ryan, and we’re pleased to have been able to help.

We are pleased to announce the addition of our Live Sunday breakfast show. Each and every Sunday from 9am, local man Gary Hopkins brings you live guest from in and around Weston, topical discussions, local ‘whats ons’ and some top tunes, ably assisted by his daugher Teyla.

If you have something Gary and Teyla need to be telling our listeners all about, if you’d like a tune played, or you’d like someone woken up with one of Gary’s ‘really rubbish songs’ let us know by email on studio@wavewsm.co.uk.
