New developments to boost our broadcast

Written By Clare Hassett

The Beat goes on!

Presented shows will be temporarily on pause from 3rd March whilst MDFR’s small team of volunteers are working on exciting developments for the station.

We will still be broadcasting 24/7 on DAB, Alexa and online with our self care reminders and curated playlists. You can listen again to your favourite presented shows.

New content

Work is underway on a new podcast to complement our radio broadcast. Aiming to provide guidance to carers of people with dementia, each episode will explore a different aspect of living with dementia.

To support this development, we will be

  • Recruiting a dedicated team of audio technicians

  • Finding a more suitable recording premises

  • Raising more funds

If you’d like to help out with this development, please email hello@mdfr.co.uk to chat.

Still dementia friendly

Whilst our presenters are having a well deserved break, we are working with a researcher and Listener Feedback group to report on what we’re getting right, and what might need some work, so we can continue to serve the needs of people living with dementia.

If you would like to be part of the Listener Feedback group, you can still join in and suggest improvements we could make. Get involved.

Thank you

This hasn’t been an easy decision to make, but these temporary changes will enable us to give other aspects of our radio station the attention they need.

We thank you for your understanding and continued support.
