Radio Royal Christmas Roadshow 2016

Tom Rickhuss

Every December Forth Valleys hospital radio station Radio Royal pitch up to the band stand in Stirling city center, play some music and shake a few cans. This is all to help raise money for the charity, helping them to continue their good work.
Kat Low a presenter on the station has seen around 20 roadshows thinks the weather makes them special as well as the people; "People are generally happier and there's always a buzz about the city"



Radio Royal was formed in 1976 and commenced broadcasting in May 1977. Staffed entirely by volunteers, Radio Royal now broadcasts via television sets to patients and online via the website and mobile apps.

Radio Royal is the call sign of Forth Valley Broadcasting, a recognised charity SC013447

There are many odd ways to raise a bit of money. But before you jump into a bath of baked beans let me tell you about this one.

My friend Chris Walker wanted to raise money for a cause that meant a lot to him.  In order to do that, he needed a computer, coffee and a whole lot of video games.
