DONATIONS
VPR IS A REGISTERED CHARITY, NUMBER 289006
Over the years we at Darent Valley radio have relied on contributions from only you the general public. In 2018 a member of our volunteers, David Reynolds an employee of John Lewis at Bluewater persuaded them to collect money in store for the year. They donated over £17,000 to the station (2018). This money was mostly used to upgrade the studio equipment to the latest around. Great, but with all of our annual expediencies needed every year to run the station we continue to seek funds. David is sadly no longer with us but his memories stay with us all. So if you would like to donate as an individual of a company please contact us at studio@valleyparkradio.org.uk of for smaller amounts click the word "donations" Thank you for your support.

Want to be part of a Local/Hospital Radio Station?
Hello there, I'm Mark and I'm another new volunteer at VPR. I love all kinds of music, from Eurythmics to Eminem, and Gershwin to Glass. Expect my shows to have an eclectic mix of music, banter and chat. I love films, so I'm sure there'll be plenty of movie themes, as well as Eurovision songs, local theatre news, interviews and...well, anything goes! Join me soon on Mondays from 3-5pm.
Hi I’m Alun and I have recently joined VPR. In the near future you can catch me on Weds lunchtimes between 12 -2pm.
I had some spare time and wanted to volunteer at somewhere, where I thought I could help.I have always loved music and talking so joining VPR seemed a natural decision!!!
If you want to join the team here and get involved send your details along with why you would like to join us to studio@valleyparkradio.org.uk over 18s only.
Who are we?
Valley Park Radio is 21. Since 2000 Valley Park Radio’s dedicated volunteers have been entertaining the Darent Valley Hospital patients, staff and visitors. We provide music 24 hours a day and our presenters broadcast a variety of live shows throughout the week. You can hear us via the radio at the hospital or online at valleyparkradio.org.uk, and UK Radio Stations | Live Radio
We are self-funding and raise funds by arranging and participating in events such as quiz nights, stalls at Dartford and Hartley festivals etc. Our dedicated band of volunteers are doing an amazing job especially in these testing times, however it would be great if we could get your help
How can you help?
Get involved. The opportunities are varied. You could patriciate in our “plug your club” section of our weekday radio shows. This is where you can promote your sports club/ local event/ hobby group via email or LIVE ON AIR.
We love to have as many varied voices on our live shows as possible so if you would like to present your own show and you are over 18 please let us know.
If presenting is not your thing, we would still love to hear from you as there are many other activities that you can be involved with.
If you are interested in any of the above, please contact at studio@valleyparkradio.org.uk.
Fundraise. We are a registered charity and rely on fundraising to continue. Although we are all volunteers there are expenses associated with running a radio station that need to be met. We would be most grateful for any donations. You can donate as an individual. Alternatively if you are a local company you could sponsor one of our shows. Please contact us at studio@valleyparkradio.org.uk.
You can also raise funds for us by shopping! When you are next shopping on Amazon go to www.smile.amazon.co.uk and search for Valley Park Radio. Amazon will then donate a percentage of your shop to us at no extra cost to you.
Thank you for your support and we hope to see or speak to you very soon.
