Radio Frimley Park exists to provide the in-house radio service for Frimley Park Hospital and is a Charitable Incorporated Organisation, registered with the Charity Commission.

The station was founded 45 years ago in 1976. The brainchild of Gordon Cox, it was originally known as “Frimley Park Broadcasting Service”.

With funds provided by the hospital’s League of Friends, following test broadcasts on a couple of evenings a week, the fledgling service launched on 1st October 1976. Over the years, the studio equipment has been replaced and refined, and the broadcasting hours were extended to every evening with longer hours during weekends. The station is affiliated to the Hospital Broadcasting Association, joining over 300 other stations across the country.
