A new weekly programme is set to join the South East Radio schedule, bringing powerful conversations, lived experiences and underrepresented voices to the forefront.<\/p>\n
Shine A Light with Siobhan Murphy\u00a0will air every Wednesday at 8pm, offering listeners a deeper look beyond the headlines into the stories shaping communities & individuals across the region and further afield.<\/p>\n
The programme is built around honest, thoughtful discussion, focusing on real people and real experiences that are often not fully heard in mainstream conversation.<\/p>\n
Each week, the show will explore themes connected to society, wellbeing, identity and community life, with a particular focus on voices and perspectives that are often overlooked.<\/p>\n
From personal journeys and resilience to wider social issues,\u00a0Shine A Light\u00a0aims to create space for meaningful, human-centred storytelling.\u00a0<\/p>\n
The first episode kicks off this Wednesday 3rd June with Denise Whitmore, who reflects on her experience following a 20-week pregnancy scan and the deeply personal journey that followed<\/p>\n
