Maritime Radio

Maritime Radio is an independent local station based in Shooters Hill, serving Greenwich and nearby parts of South East London and North West Kent. Operated by Greenwich Media CIC, it combines familiar popular music with local news, sport, traffic and interviews. Its home at Shrewsbury House places the service within the community it covers, with neighbourhood events and organisations regularly appearing in its output.

Steve Bowman presents Greenwich Breakfast, while Matthew Jackson provides an early breakfast programme. Joe McCartney is a voice of Maritime Daytimes and Gary Silvester hosts Greenwich Drive. Local information is woven into these programmes, from traffic affecting the journey across the borough to sports stories and matters of interest to residents. National news is complemented by separate local bulletins.

The music spans newer pop and familiar records: published selections include Sabrina Carpenter, Sia and the Spin Doctors. Friday Free For All gives listeners a choice of tunes, while Lee Everest's Dance Party Weekly moves towards club classics, dance anthems and newer dance releases. Alan Hare's Live Sessions features performers and studio guests, adding live music to the recorded selection. Greg Martin's late programme looks towards local weekend activity.

Community interviews include fundraising campaigns and projects associated with organisations such as the Chartwell Children's Cancer Trust. Wider coverage has addressed events in Greenwich Park, theatre at local venues and travel disruption around Shooters Hill. Local football is also represented, including stories about clubs such as Cray Wanderers. These subjects give Maritime a geographical focus that goes beyond its name: music and conversation are grounded in the daily life of the Greenwich area.
