A NEW VOICE ON BHBN

ELLA IGGULDEN

Ella is a Communication Office with the University Hospitals Birmingham Charities based at the Edgbaston Queen Elizbeth Site.  Ella travels around the other hospitals in the trust interviewing Patients, Doctors, Nurses Research Staff and a wide range of hospital personnel to discover how the funds raised by the charity. BHBNradio is extremely grateful to the UHB Charities to allow Ella to share the features and stories she produces with us.  https://www.hospitalcharity.org

Ella now presents three editions of The Words & Music Programme each month on Wednesday evenings at 6pm. Her programme features ‘A person of the week’ if you would like to nominate someone or you have a inspiring story to share you can send her an email on ella@bhbn.net

THE OLIVER BROWN AWARD

Ollie Brown was a member of BHBN for a number of years until 2016 when he left to return home to Swindon to look after his mother with his fiancée Liz.
Tragically Ollie died in August 2018 after suffering a brain haemorrhage
.

Ollie loved volunteering for BHBN and once trained he enjoyed training new members therefore it was only appropriate to name an award for Best Trainees in his memory.

The pandemic delayed the presentation of the 2020 award which was won by Kira Hughes.  Kira applied in response to our request for a presenter for Children’s wards and did her training along with her one hundred hours university work experience which she did over a short period attending the studios every day learning all aspects of the studio equipment and computerised playout system. Going forward she took on two programmes each week

The 2021 award was presented to Lily Grace James. Without previous experience Lily Grace presented her first solo show navigating the complexities of the Morning Show after just three weeks of training that was modified due to Covid restrictions.  Lily Grace then went on to sit in on other programmes to cover holidays and sickness.

Congratulations to them both!
