Radio Warneford

Radio Warneford Welcome to Radio Warneford, the hospital broadcasting service based at Warwick Hospital. Why Radio "Warneford"?

Celebrating more than fifty years of fabulous hospital radio across South Warwickshire. We’ve been making patients happy since 1973 and absolutely love what we do! The station was founded back in 1973 to provide entertainment for patients over the Christmas period. At that time, the main hospital for the area was the Warneford General Hospital on Radford Road in Leamington Spa and that's where we

were based for twenty years. Warwick Hospital got its first taste of Radio Warneford's programmes in 1988 when broadcasts started being relayed from the Leamington studios via a landline. The Warneford Hospital finally closed its doors to patients in 1993 and Radio Warneford moved into brand new, purpose-built studios on the Warwick Hospital site. Having operated for twenty years and become well known locally as Radio Warneford, a change of name was thought inappropriate. So although the Warneford Hospital is now no more, its name continues to live on in ours.

SWFT Clinical Services are excited to announce the opening of the newly upgraded Outpatient Pharmacy at Warwick Hospital. Designed with patient care, safety, and service delivery at its core, the new facility represents a significant step forward in supporting the NHS and enhancing the patient experience.

The new pharmacy facility increases capacity, enabling SWFT Clinical Services to support a larger number of patients while improving operational efficiency. A key highlight of the facility is the introduction of a dispensing robot, which increases the site’s stock levels and enhances the speed of the dispensing process. This technology allows for faster patient discharges, enabling focus on direct patient care.

Fancy Joining The Team?

Radio Warneford is always on the lookout for enthusiastic new recruits with a few hours to spare each week to join the station in one of a number of roles.

Are you a budding broadcaster, wanting to learn the skills required to put together and broadcast radio programmes for patients? We are looking for new people to join one of our broadcasting teams.

Our volunteers go out and about on the wards to meet the patients and then put together our evening Request Show and other programmes to entertain our listeners. They also take part in special broadcasts throughout the year, at Christmas and Easter for example, and they help to raise the funds needed to keep Radio Warneford on the air!

Is Hospital Radio still a thing in 2025?

YES! Hospital Radio is all about people. Our team of dedicated volunteers visit patients at their bedside every single week to chat, ask for a music request and play their favourite song. We dedicate songs for patients and staff from the wider community. We entertain with the sole aim of making patients happier.

We've been doing this since 1973!
