Smooth North Wales and Cheshire Radio

Smooth North Wales and Cheshire is a cross-border edition of the Smooth music service. Familiar songs and presenter-led continuity reach an audience on both sides of the Welsh-English border, with melodic pop and established recordings at the centre of the programme.

The service's public information names North Wales and Cheshire together in its news remit. Local stories are included alongside national and international news, sport, weather and entertainment updates. The result is a regional information strand covering a paired audience area, while the main music shows remain shared across Smooth. Its published song information has included Pretenders, illustrating that the repertoire can contain guitar-led popular records as well as softer ballads within the same broad familiar-music format.

The North Wales and Cheshire edition brings Smooth's shared music programmes to a cross-border audience. Jenni Falconer presents breakfast, Kate Garraway begins her show with an hour of non-stop music, and Paul Phear and Angie Greaves provide the afternoon voices. The local news strand is distinct from the production of those network entertainment shows, so the service can address both areas without claiming a wholly separate schedule.

The Smooth Sanctuary with Darren Parks gives the weekday evening a quieter selection, followed by Martin Collins on The Smooth Late Show. Weekend programmes include Eamonn Kelly at breakfast and shows with Tina Hobley and Myleene Klass. That combination gives the station a broad familiar-song format with named presentation and a recurring relaxed strand, rather than a playlist restricted to a single decade.
