BBC Radio Kent

BBC Radio Kent brings county stories and everyday conversation together with music and sport. Its range includes presenter-led entertainment, interviews and short features about particular places, with opportunities for listeners to contribute their own experiences. The local programme forms part of a longer schedule that also carries shared BBC shows.

Anna Cookson and Adam Dowling are among the voices highlighted in the station's published output. Dowling's programme has welcomed guests including Andy Hamilton and The Feeling, illustrating the entertainment and interview side of the service. These conversations sit alongside subjects closer to everyday life in Kent, giving the station room to move between local concerns and cultural interests.

Secret Kent explores stories attached to the county's places. A feature about switching off the lights at Betteshanger is one example of that local-memory strand. Gillingham FC interviews add a football perspective, while BBC Introducing - Kent offers another route into the music: its Record of the Week feature has included Déyyess. The combination gives sport, history and emerging performers distinct spaces within the wider service.

The shared evening line-up includes Kamilah McInnis, bringing music and conversations from African and Caribbean communities across the south of England. Jo Good's Late Night Jo and overnight BBC Radio 5 Live output extend that shared listening. Locally, Your Voice invites stories about issues affecting communities, Upload welcomes creative talent and Make a Difference supplies help and information. Participation remains part of the programme alongside its presenters, guests and recorded features.
