Grampian Hospital Radio broadcasts to the patients of Aberdeen Royal Infirmary, Aberdeen Maternity Hospital and Roxburghe House. We are a registered charity (SC002508), run completely by volunteers. We are also a member of the Hospital Broadcasting Association. Unlike local commercial and national radio stations, we provide a service of a more personal nature, with more interaction from the patients and staff at the hospitals. Grampian Hospital Radio broadcasts a range of specialist shows, including pop music, classical, Scottish, Irish and country music, catering for all the musical tastes and genres that our listeners like to hear. A request show is also broadcast every night on Grampian Hospital Radio. We also run a separate radio station, Radio Rainbow, which broadcasts to the patients and staff of the Royal Aberdeen Children’s Hospital. Radio Rainbow broadcasts from its studio on the lower ground floor of the children’s hospital. At Radio Rainbow, patients and staff are encouraged to visit our studio and phone in with requests. Radio Rainbow broadcasts a range of pop music, children’s songs and stories. At both stations, our members visit the wards on a regular basis, to speak to the patients and find out what music they would like to hear.
