Dear Martin,
Our dedicated Communications Executive Ian has kindly agreed to hand me
the microphone and write the introductions to these carefully curated
newsletters.
This month we’re bringing you information about the results of the Ofcom
consultation, where we have successfully influenced a reduction in the
proposed fee increase; an opportunity to nominate your volunteers in the
Queen’s 2023 birthday honours; and much much more.
For those of you who just can’t get enough of hospital radio and have
ideas and energy to spare, we have multiple vacancies open for HBA
volunteers from sales and advertising manager for the new podcast
platform, to social media community manager, and even the opportunity to
write this newsletter. Head over to *Reach Volunteering*
<https://www.hbauk.com/civicrm/mailing/url?u=8317&qid=148064> and search
for HBA to view the full list of vacancies.
Speaking of newsletters, I do enjoy receiving some of yours so if your
station would like to add amy.palmer@xxxxxxxxx to their mailing list
then please feel free.
Remember, HBA is here for you so please do get in touch with any
questions or requests.
Best Wishes,
Amy Palmer
Executive Director
