CHBN - Community Radio for Truro

Welcome to CHBN - Community Radio for Truro

CHBN is the Community and Hospital Broadcasting Network.

Since 1980 we have broadcast to patients at the Royal Cornwall Hospital, Treliske; St. Michael's Hospital in Hayle and the West Cornwall Hospital in Penzance. The charity “Truro Hospital Radio” was formed back in July 1980, although a Hospital Radio service in Truro dates back to the 1960s when it was called the “Patient’s Record Request Programme”.

Now, from Monday 14 April at 10.08 CHBN is building on that legacy by broadcasting to Truro and beyond from our studios in the Elizabeth Sanders Studio at the Royal Cornwall Hospital.
We can be found throughout the area shown below - and beyond! - on 100.8 FM.

We offer a wide range of both music- and speech-based programmes for all ages presented by our dedicated team of volunteers, with a number of programmes highlighting health and lifestyle issues, and we promise to play a wide range of music with both general and specialist appeal.

We will also bring you regular news bulletins on the hour between 8.00am-10.00pm and a sustaining service of 'soft, soothing sounds through the night.

If you would like to let us know about an event you are organising please let us know by dropping us an email at least a week in advance, and don't forget to let us know if your venue is wheelchair-friendly.

If you are interested in joiing CHBN as a volunteer please contact us and let us know.

The map (right) shows our approximate FM coverage area, where reception should be good, though we have already had reports of good reception in many places outside this area. For best results on portable sets we recommend you fully extend the telescopic aerial.
