The free streaming you have allowed has been a lifesaver for this charity. Our stream has now been added to two other hospitals in the Liverpool area—Royal Liverpool Hospital and Clatterbridge Cancer Centre. The professional streaming service from Streamerr has been invaluable for us to continue with the health advice and patient service we provide as a hospital community radio service.
Radio Broadgreen
Liverpool Hospital
Streamerr's service enables us to extend our service online, enabling people to listen where the radio signal doesn't reach, and to use voice-activated devices such as smart speakers. We aim to entertain and reduce the social isolation of those in hospital, residential care, or living at home with illness, and to promote healthy, active, independent living in later life.
Winchester Radio
Royal Hampshire County Hospital
Streamerr's kind support allows us to broadcast to both the internet and internally to the patients and staff at Nottingham's Queen's Medical Centre, City Hospital, and the National Rehabilitation Centre. As a small charity, we need to keep our costs as low as possible whilst trying to maintain high quality output for our listeners. Aaron and the team at Streamerr really help us achieve this.
Nottingham Hospital Radio

We would like to thank Streamerr for their help in providing the link between the patients and their loved ones so they can both hear the request—not to mention helping to keep our costs down. The service has been invaluable for connecting patients with their families during their hospital stay.
