Things we talked about today…
Today on the Breakfast Show, Ben and Laura ran Tunes for a Tenner! This is for friend of the show Sean Coxhead who is currently battling terminal cancer. As our Local Hero winner last year Sean has been fund-raising for Macmillan and recently his £20,000 target which is fantastic! But we wanted to get some more as every little helps! A massive thank you to everyone who donated money to Sean’s Just Giving page and requested a song – we had a lot of fun playing some wacky and wonderful tunes and all for s great cause!
And it was House Band Friday today! We had local band Solar Bats in today who filled the studio with their instruments and fantastic sound! They will be playing at Fossgate Festival on the 1st September and play in many local venues around York – make sure you check them out on our Facebook Page!
