Uniting Friends Radio

UF Radio is an internet based radio show compiled by Erron Wellington and our team of members who assist with the show.

Members meet weekly at "Out There! In Control" group to discuss topics of their choice. Previous topics have been 'My London', 'Nice work if you can get it' and 'Every vote counts'.

Listen to all our previous shows here. CDs are handed out to our members at the Groovy Cat Club too.

 

"Being part of a creative radio show, getting your points of view across and being part of it has made me happy and proud of myself." - Cynthia B

"That Erron is marvellous. He does the music for us. I like the CDs and listening to myself and the music." - Jamie C

"Its been amazing over the years! The music and requests, its been a fabulous show. I enjoy listening on the website." - Lauren R

"Being part of the radio team with Erron, Colin and others is the best, getting your voice heard whether the message is good or bad and being around the table talking to the gorgeous listeners. Its been fantastic and I'm so proud of the show." - Johan F

  • UF Radio - February 2021:

    UF Radio - February 2021: "Valentines and Vaccinations"

    This month's show explores how people were feeling about their upcoming COVID vaccines. Did they feel concerned in any way or just confident that the vaccine would be a positive step back to normality? The people that had already been vaccinated gave feedback to reassure others. The show also covers our Valentine's theme and whether people felt they really wanted a relationship, if not currently in one. We invited the group to say how they could be supported to make this happen.

  • UF Radio - January 2021:

    UF Radio - January 2021: "Keeping it Fun in 2021"

    After a pretty awful 2020, we started the new year talking about things that are known to make you and others feel good. We asked: "What can you do for someone in this difficult time?" Helping others is a tried and tested feel-good hormone trigger! We also asked about our own wellbeing, doing something new and doing more of what you love. We need to have fun! Listen to our show to hear what our crew had to say and, whilst you're at it, hear some great cracking tunes along the way.
