Programming is aimed at a very broad age range and the music policy focuses mainly on the music of the 1960s to the present day. Alongside the main music format, York Hospital Radio broadcasts specialist music e.g. classical, country, show tunes and specific genres of music dependent on the presenters’ choice.
-
York Hospital Radio broadcasts online and can now be heard via tunein radio, via app or on the website www.yorkhospitalradio.com In order to be compliant the trustees ensure that we are fully licensed.
Summary of the main activities undertaken for the public benefit in relation to these objects (include within this section the statutory declaration that trustees have had regard to the guidance issued by the Charity Commission on public benefit)
-
As well as providing music entertainment, York Hospital Radio provides a 24 hour news service and a range of Outside Broadcasts. Outside broadcasts include:

-
York Barbican
-
LNER Community Stadium
Additional details of objectives and activities (Optional information)
- York Hospital Radio is fully reliant on volunteers in order to be successful, this includes fundraising and all aspects of station management. As a result of this, the long term future is always reliant on a range of volunteers who are part of the organisation at any time.
You may choose to include further statements, where relevant, about:
-
Fundraising has evolved and we have some much needed financial stability. A small group of volunteers are now part of this group and through their dedication funding is starting to come into the organisation. This has led to a major refurbishment of some of the equipment that keeps the station on air 24 hours per day. This has provided a structural stability to the station.

-

Section D Achievements and performance
| Summary of the main achievements of the charity during the year |
York Hospital Radio continues to broadcast online and also via Hospedia (hard wire) in the hospital. We now have the ability to broadcast from any location using Myriad Anywhere. This will be a future training route and may allow us to bring in a more diverse range of presenters. Due to the set up of the station it may not always be easy to remote broadcast. However, this will keep the station viable in the longer term. I have been grateful to the presenters who have turned their hand to presenting or in fact started presenting from home. My thanks to those presenters who continue to come into the studio, as well as those who turned their hand to remote voicetracking. This allows us to effectively be live from 10am until midnight most days. Sponsors continue to provide much needed funds for our organisation. There was continued support from the Health Trust, York Gin, Minster Grange, Elcocks, Miller Food Services, Rainbow International, Carefound Home Care, York Roast Co and Streamline. Future sponsorship will always be a challenge, but we must be open to what is and isn’t achievable. Using the membership and their connections will be the most effective way of fund generation. My thanks to the committee of trustees for their continued hard work and support this year. As an organisation we are at risk in terms of the longer-term future. This is due to the lack of interest in becoming trustees. We need a Secretary and have scope for further development roles if needed. We need to find people who are willing to take on this role to ensure good succession planning and also bring in new ideas to the station management too. Outside broadcasts have continued this year. Limited in number, and maybe more limited moving forward due to broadcasting permissions and limitations. However, it has been great to see the return of a range of broadcasts. My thanks to all the team involved in making these happen and the editing of the work too. York Hospital Radio Ball has continued to go from strength to strength. The money generated and the interest has been high. York City commentary has been excellent this year. Providing the commentary for home games for the National League has been a huge step forward. This will change the listenership of the station and we must do more to improve sponsor opportunities and also connect more aspects within this new listener opportunity. This time next year we will be in the 60thbirthday zone. There is a lot to do and a small group helping to steer this. If you have any ideas or want to get involved, please let Phil Bewers know. My thanks and welcome to Stevie George, who has joined as a new presenter this year. Stevie has quickly become part of the team and presented numerous special programmes too. The music database has been re-designed and future proofed to remove some of the items that were relevant in 2001, but are no longer relevant. This means anyone programming the station in the future will find it easier to understand than the crazy model, that was developed at a time when radio station programming wasn’t quite the norm, in terms of computers. |

Section E Financial review
Brief statement of the charity’s policy on reserves
The Charity has a policy of retaining at least 6 months general running costs at any given time.
Details of any funds materially in deficit
The charity does not run in deficit
Further financial review details (Optional information)
You may choose to include additional information, where relevant about:
-
the charity’s principal sources of funds (including any fundraising);
-
how expenditure has supported the key objectives of the charity;
-
investment policy and objectives including any ethical investment policy adopted.
The Charity’s principal sources of funding are, Programme Sponsorship, £2550.00 (£4000 -2021) Donations £2366.00 (£2203 -2021) Fundraising events £6228.00 (£5905 -2021) Subscriptions £665.00 (£715 -2021)
-
The aim is to organise at least one major fundraising event each year. It relies on Members taking some responsibility to organise these events. With the easing of Covid restrictions this has allowed us to put on a Quiz for the first time in 3 years raising just under £1,000.
-
The annual ‘Smile’ magazine brings in a significant donation. The Hospital Ball Podcast also is now bringing in a significant amount, each time Dan Tait releases another series.
York’s Annual Community Carol Concert is also a significant donation and this year was £1,000.00.
The fundraising income shows an increase although part of this (£2750) is ring-fenced for the creation of a new website.
Sponsorship income continues to be a lifeline. The figure, although lower is due to money been received on the wrong side of the financial year close off, skewing the figure for this financial year.
Expenditure has seen an increase in the year this can be attributed partly to repairs of Studios, as the equipment ages inevitably we will have to repair and renew, just to keep everything working. This has been the case this year. We have not been affected by the increase in gas & electricity as we took out a Fixed Gas tariff which runs until 29.12.23 & Electric fixed until 12.2.25. We will have to face a gas increase later this year as this fixed deal runs out.
Cash at the Bank at the Year end was £32,996.00 This compares to 2021 figure of £27,959. The Trustees are extremely satisfied with the figure.
