Great to be on Radio Calderdale listening to some of my favourite tracks and talking about why they are important to me.

They were formed in 1981 in the old Halifax General Hospital, and have been in their current studios since 2001 providing a service for the Calderdale Royal Hospital.

They are made up entirely of volunteers, so a big thank you to Rachel and everyone at the charity - and thank you for inviting me on.

Tune in this weekend! 📻
