Welcome to Whipps Cross Hospital Radio

We are a registered charity with around 45 volunteers who take on many different roles from visiting and chatting with patients to presenting programmes and technical support; everyone can have a part to play. We provide music, requests, patient information, national news as well as local news, sport and entertainment round-the-clock, seven days a week.

Broadcasting to the Whipps Cross community of patients, ex-patients, out-patients and staff as well as friends and relatives, our programmes are available on smart speakers, the TuneIn radio app, around the hospital and online via the ‘listen live’ button at the top of this page.
