We are looking for presenters to cover a large amount
of broadcasting. We are now putting out shows 24/7 and
need volunteers for during the day as well as evenings.
There is plenty of room to fit new presenters in a time slot to suit their
availability.
There is only limited live shows during the day, a lot is pre recorded.
It would be great to fill the time with live presenters.
At the moment we only have evening presenters who are regularly
broadcasting so most of the training will have to be done in the evening.
We are currently training on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Fridays.
There are a number of tasks a presenter will normally undertake
at RHB. The main one of course is presenting a show on
air. Other rolls include:
i) Assisting with Requestline. This is our flagship show
which is on air every evening. It will require someone
visiting the wards collecting requests from patients if the
request collector is unavailable.
ii) Fundraising. RHB is a self funded charity and has to
be able to raise funds for equipment, maintenance,
licensing, music and many other things. Most of the
funds are collected by donations but there will be times
that it isn’t enough.
iii) Training. Assisting new volunteers with training.
Please note that a presenter will not be able to present
their own show until full training is complete, they will
however be able to present Requestline as part of their
training.
iv) When training is complete and a presenter has settled
into their roll they may if they wish, join the committee to
assist in the day to day running of RHB. Most of the
committee is decided on at our AGM which is held in
November but there is an opt on system that will allow
anyone to join the committee any time if they wished to.
