New for 2021

New year. New programmes on NHR.

Here at NHR, we’re looking forward to the year 2021. During 2020 we upgraded some of our studio equipment which means we can now bring you more shows.

Vinyl Impressions - Martyn Brown

Martyn brings you his show “Vinyl Impressions”. He plays all his music from vinyl and has 4 themes

  • Old, Gold ‘n’ Rare – If the music is old, it’s included, if it’s sold so many copies that it’s earned a gold disc, it’s included and, just for a good variety, rare vinyl tracks are played, as well
  • Vinyl Pop Hits – There are two types of Vinyl Impressions shows that feature ‘Vinyl Pop’, firstly, Vinyl Pop and, secondly, Vinyl Pop Hits.  Vinyl Pop is exactly that but with tracks not necessarily being a chart hit, while Vinyl Pop Hits feature the biggest chart hits from across the decades
  • Mystery Year – So many stations love The Mystery Year Top 3s where, presenter Martyn Brown plays the top 3 singles and lets you try to remember which year the songs played are from.  
  • Vinyl 1960s – Vinyl 1960s is usually the big pop hits from this decade but, sometimes, it features the rare tracks that have become collector’s items over the years.

Happy New Year

As we prepare to welcome the year 2021, it’s probably fair to say, that for most, 2020 has been more than a little tough.

However, we must take a few moments to think of the positive things that did happen.

We saw the kindness and generosity of so many people helping out those who were struggling. The community spirit that appeared. Shopping for others. Meeting neighbours. Clapping for carers. Endless generous donations to community funds and charity’s.

We must also surely take time to recognise those key workers that kept the country running. From the Bus drivers to the shop workers. Bin men to utility workers. Lorry drivers to the emergency services. The list is too great to mention them all. Our thanks must surely be expressed to them all.

Then there is the NHS. The biggest shout of gratitude must surely go out to the NHS and all those that make it such a world leading, caring organisation. It must surely have been the toughest and most challenging year for all the members of this most cherished British organisation. To all those NHS workers, we must say Thank you, Thank you, Thank you.

We are truly blessed in the UK to have the NHS.

Happy New Year

All of us at Nottingham Hospitals Radio would like to wish all the patients, carers, staff and volunteers of our own little bit if the NHS, Nottingham University Hospitals a very Happy New Year.

We recognise that there is still a mountain to climb, but we are confident that 2021 will see us well on the road to recovery in more ways than one.

We wish you all health and happiness.

Happy New Year
