Don't miss Bexhill FM

"BROADCASTING live from Bexhill High School, this is 87.7 Bexhill FM."

It is that time of year again when audiences in Bexhill adjust their radio dials - turning off Terry Wogan and tuning-in to our very own breakfast DJ Chris Cole.

Starting on Monday, and for five days only, Bexhill FM will bring you the latest news, tunes and views straight from the heart of the town.

The station will be managed by Bexhill High School students with input from St Richard's Catholic College, Bexhill College and a number of Bexhill primary schools.

Listeners will also receive a daily dose of Chris Cole and Dave Cowley, who are two of the High School's most celebrated staff. Chris will host the breakfast show from 7-9am and Dave will present a jazz hour starting at 6pm.

Station managers promise a range of programmes and musical genres to cater for all tastes, with live programmes going out between 7am and 7pm each day, followed by uninterupted music throughout the night.

Residents in Bexhill, Sidley, St Leonards, Hooe, Ninfield, Catsfield and Crowhurst can tune their wireless to 87.7FM, while those further afield will have to catch the live stream on the internet. Visitors to the bexhillfm.com website will also be able to watch the team at work on the studio webcam.

Bexhill Youth Council have given up their time to help out at the station and a number of local businesses have already shown their support through sponsorship and advertising. Station staff wish to send their thanks to these people and to everyone else that has helped organise the event.
