Voluntary Charity Broadcasting Service

HRTW serves the patients in the Tunbridge Wells Hospital at Pembury and Tonbridge Cottage Hospital. Most programmes can also be heard online via hrtw.org.uk or by using the Tune In app on mobiles and tablet devices. The service is entirely run by volunteers and we always need additional members for the team, so if you would like to get involved contact us. As a charity we also need to raise funds to continue the service, so again if you can help, please get in touch, local businesses can sponsor our shows, or help with donations.
