Beyond Radio

Beyond Radio describes itself as local radio from the heart of Lancaster for the surrounding bay. The broadcaster invites news of charities, community groups and local events, showing a clear interest in the people who make the area what it is. Its live player carries the station’s own programme.

Andy Lawson presents breakfast, Dave Salmon hosts the More Music Workday and Dom Molloy leads Beyond Drive. Their programmes provide the weekday framework, while specialist presenters broaden the selection later in the schedule. The service combines familiar music with shows built around particular musical interests.

Harri Deane's On the Record brings jazz, swing and show tunes into the programme. Chris Denerley's Folk & Acoustic Show covers traditional and contemporary material, and Ginny Koppenhol presents Higher State. Luke Edmondson and Steve Haworth are also part of the line-up, with Haworth's Late Night Jukebox providing another named music programme. The range gives individual presenters room to shape what listeners hear.

Local music has a place through the Taphouse Unsigned sessions, connecting the station with performers around its Lancaster and Morecambe Bay setting. Beyond Radio also invites contributions from charities and community groups, promotes local events and involves volunteers in its work. These activities extend its local role beyond news headlines. The music programme can move from a general workday selection to folk, jazz or unsigned performances, while the community coverage keeps Lancaster and the surrounding bay at the centre of the service.
