A council and hospital radio station have teamed up to promote services for over 50s across the airwaves.

Cherwell District Council’s older people’s champion Paul O’Sullivan and older people’s officer Laura Thomas will be invited to Radio Horton to give regular updates.

Every six weeks they will discuss topics of interest, events and activities organised in the Cherwell area.

Station manager Stewart Green said: “Radio Horton has been serving the community for 45 years by providing an entertainment service specifically for patients in the Horton General Hospital.

“It is great that we now provide information which will benefit them when they leave the hospital.”
