Listen To Bedrock
A registered charity, operated by volunteers, providing community & Hospital Radio service for East London & South Essex.

Funded by donations.

Bedrock Radio is a registered charity No. 1180476.
Run entirely by local volunteers who give their time generously.

We are funded by donations from the public and local companies, we achieve this by hosting local events, or arranging collections in the local area.

Did you know it costs over £5000 per year to beep Bedrock Radio running?

We rely on fundraising and donations from the public, along with sponsorship and advertising from local businesses, to help keep us on-air.
All the funds raised are absorbed into our operating costs these include: music licences (PRS/PPL), internet, software licences, studio equipment repairs, transmission fees, broadcast services (National news, Music downloads, Advert scripting) plus investing in volunteer training and new ward radios for patients to listen to Bedrock Radio in hospital.

We are thankful for all the support and generous donations from the community, along with our volunteers who work on a voluntary basis, dedicating their time and skills for free, play a vital role in keeping Bedrock Radio on-air.

Across the health community, patients, staff and local people make Bedrock Radio part of their day.

Listening in hospital, at home, at work or on the go. Bedrock is available in local hospitals, online, smart speakers and the Bedrock Radio App. Later in 2025 we’re launching on DAB+ (Digital Radio) across East London and South Essex, making it easier to listen and reach the community.


Bedrock Radio receives no financial support from the NHS.

We are independent of all hospital charities, while they do their own good work in improving other areas of the hospital (often with much larger budgets & paid staff), they typically do not provide funds to maintain or support for  dedicated patient entertainment schemes,
Including as hospital radio, as such hospital radio stations (like Bedrock Radio) are operated as an independent separate charity.
