Some of you know this already, so sorry for going over old ground


After almost 4 years at Key 103 my run will finish at the end of September. I’ve had a great time and am very proud of what I’ve achieved on a personal level and overall as a team whilst in Manchester


My challenge going forward is to find a new opportunity in radio be that in the North West, elsewhere in the UK or even further a field, so my motto for now is ‘Have headphones, will travel’ it’s also quite an exciting time to consider career No.2 whatever that maybe, so I’m open to offers and conversations about anything and everything


Most of all I couldn’t have done my job without the help and support of family and friends both old and new
