Park Radio has been my virtual colleague throughout the past two months whilst I have been on my own in the office. The radio sits next to me on my desk where Chris and the team have kept me feeling happy, inspired and hopeful that normality will return before too long. Out of lockdown, myself and my colleague, Amber listen to Park Radio in the office every day. Despite being born in different decades, we both enjoy the amazing uplifting variety of music played. I also really enjoy listening to the regular interviews with local business people and those championing local organisations and events. These are great ways to highlight and promote such businesses, facilities or amenities in and around Diss, Harleston and Eye. As to the community as a whole, I cannot emphasise enough what a lifeline Park Radio is in
