This year’s pantomime at The Hawth guarantees an evening of family fun and entertainment.
‘DICK WHITTINGTON’ stars CHARLIE BROOKS (EastEnders, I’m a Celebrity Winner), GEMMA HUNT (CBeebies’ Swashbuckle), DAVID RIBI (CH5’s Milkshake), with Crawley favourites, the fabulous MICHAEL J BATCHELOR and RICHARD FRANKS.
Neil Munday, one of the Susy Radio presenters, has been asking on air via a promo and via twitter for you, your choir or group to send in a few carols to him at neilm@susyradio.com.
The response has been terrific and the music and vocals absolutely mind blowing. There is real talent in East Surrey and North Sussex.
The songs submitted were checked and then an introduction recorded for each so you, our listeners, know exactly who these brilliant local people in our community are.
Each song is then entered onto our system at Susy Radio which will pop them into the day totally at random so everyone will get a chance to hear them all, we are sure.
Susy Radio would like to thank you all and wish you a Happy and Enjoyable Christmas
Our presenter Annie Whitmore had the pleasure of interviewing celebrity chef Tony Tobin.
He chatted to Annie about his latest venture – Ranmore at Reigate Heath – as well as giving her valuable advice on preparing the perfect Christmas feast.
If you want to achieve culinary triumphs over the festive period, this is the interview to listen to …
‘Jigsaw South East’ is the children’s bereavement charity that operates in Surrey and parts of West Sussex.
They are there for families who have lost a parent which aids the remaining parent to know the child is gaining the support they need as the parent comes to terms with the loss of a partner. They exist to enable friendships to be forged, to help the young people find their way through understanding at a pace that they are comfortable with.
The charity can be recommended by schools, teachers, carers or medical professionals or by the children themselves. This is where Molly and Hannah come in as young Ambassadors for Jigsaw South East as young people who have found life beyond loss and are happy to share their experiences.
This interview was very difficult for Susy Radio presenter Neil Munday who personally knew Stephen, Hannah`s father, who helped build Susy Radio in the early years – Stephen passed away 10 years ago on 2nd December. So to record this interview in the very same studio that Stephen broadcast one of his final shows from which the clip is taken, from the Susy Radio archive of that RSL (Restricted Service Licence) broadcast made the whole experience for Hannah and Neil very emotional.
Hannah and Molly were accompanied to the Susy studio here in Merstham by Hannah`s mum Dianne and younger brother Thomas.
Neil recorded the introduction separately from the main interview to remove the preasure from Hannah but it clearly becomes too much and Neil halts the discussion.
The family, Molly and Neil then spend time sharing personal memories, photographs of Stephen and Hannah is pictured pointing to Stephen her father in a photograph still on the wall in the Susy office. Neil conveys this at the end of the interview in a live tag on to the recording.
Susy radio would like to thank Hannah, Molly, Thomas and Dianne for allowing this interview to happen and would like to encourage you if you need help in this way to talk to Jigsaw. If you’re a young person, speak to your parent or carer or teacher in confidence and ask them to speak with Jigsaw South East.
