Welcome to HRST: Online

HRST is a charity run by dedicated volunteers, committed to providing a hospital broadcasting service to the patients of South Tyneside District Hospital in South Shields in North East England.  Our volunteers give a few hours each week to collect requests and produce programmes as well as fundraising to keep the station on air.

To celebrate the start of Hospital Broadcasting Week 2009, HRST held another Request-athon on Saturday 28th March.  Click the logo to find out more.
