Christmas Highlights on Cambridge 105 Radio

This festive season, Cambridge 105 Radio brings Christmas music from local schoolchildren and the world-famous King’s College choir, recalls the heyday of the Howard Mallett Centre, runs a live treasure hunt around the city, and Mayor of Cambridge, Councillor Nigel Gawthrope turns radio presenter.

In between there’s special programmes from favourite presenters including live breakfast shows on Christmas Day and New Year’s Day with Phil Rowe and Glenn Jones.

While Julian Clover and Lucy Milazzo take a Christmas break, Matt Webb takes the Cambridge Breakfast reins for Christmas with essential news, weather and travel.

Mayor of Cambridge, Councillor Nigel Gawthrope said: “The show represents my musical influences chronologically, starting with the first record I ever bought, then the soul influences of my teens and the prog rock of my outlaw biker days.”

Tim Willett, Station Manager, Cambridge 105 Radio: “Once again we’ve been able to produce a schedule that reflects the city and South Cambridgeshire. It’s hard to believe that all of our programme-makers are volunteers

“I’m sure that on Christmas morning many people will be unwrapping smart speakers and shouting ‘Play Cambridge 105 Radio’, they won’t be disappointed.”

Since you’re here …

… we have a small favour to ask. More people are listening to Cambridge 105 Radio than ever but in a competitive media landscape it’s sometimes difficult to make a noise. And advertising revenues are falling across the sector.

Our brief is to give a voice to those sometimes excluded from traditional media. And the presenters you hear on air are all volunteers themselves, who give up their time for free. We do it because we believe our perspective matters – because it might well be your perspective, too.

If everyone who listens to our shows, our podcasts, whose businesses we feature, helps to pay for it, our future would be much more secure.

Please help to support community radio and make our future more secure. You can support Cambridge 105 Radio by giving monthly or by making a one-off contribution through Local Giving.

Thank you.

Volunteer

Cambridge 105 Radio needs its team of volunteers to keep it running. Everything from finances to programming is managed by people who willingly give up their time to do something they enjoy – being involved in community radio.
