Radio Grapevine

Presenter: Debra Davies

Presents: Senior Moments

l joined Radio Grapevine without any ambition to present a radio programme – it had never been on my radar!

When I started volunteering in February 2017, I enjoyed meeting the patients as I went round the wards collecting requests, I helped produce the live shows and made some good friends at the station. As time passed, I decided to give presenting a go and when the opportunity arose to cover a show for another presenter I was apprehensive, but up for the challenge!

I wasn't sure how a London accent would go down on a Scottish radio station but was assured I sounded ok!

To date I have never looked back! I'm a big fan of the music from the early 80s but my tastes cover the music from the 50s, 60s and 70s too. I don't think I could name a favourite band but the list would have to include Queen, Madness, The Beatles, ELO, The Police and Adam and the Ants! I have also become involved in Radio Grapevine’s outside broadcast events which are great fun.

Debra can currently be heard presenting ‘Senior Moments’, a request show on Tuesday evening at 8pm.
