Boreham Wood Radio

Boreham Wood Radio is a community station serving Borehamwood, Elstree, Radlett and Shenley in southern Hertfordshire. It is run with volunteer involvement and operates from studios at Elstree Screen Arts Academy. Its close connection with those communities gives local people, schools and organisations a place within the programme rather than treating the area simply as part of a wider regional audience.

Music shares the schedule with conversation, local information and programmes about subjects relevant to residents. The area's history and its association with film and television provide distinctive material, while contributions from community groups and educational activity add other perspectives. The broadcaster also makes programme material available beyond its live output, allowing local stories and discussions to be heard again.

Dereck Staines and Ken share Good Times Great Music, using chart countdowns and stories from earlier years alongside local events. Dave Ellis contributes the Saturday Soul Show and the Sunday-night Record Club, where original vinyl is part of the presentation. Sarah Joy and Keith Reeve host Sunday On The Record, mixing older and newer music with conversation. Macie's Friday drivetime strand adds pop-culture discussion, celebrity news and new releases.

The station's DAB service reaches southern Hertfordshire, supporting the same local purpose as its online listening. Its identity combines accessible music with an interest in the people and institutions around its studio. Boreham Wood Radio is particularly relevant to listeners who want to hear their own communities represented and to those interested in the cultural life of Elstree and Borehamwood.
