Su Harrison goes solo on Essex radio stations with new morning show
Su Harrison is joining Kube Media in Essex to host a syndicated show on Essex Hits, Radio Southend, and Radio Chelmsford.
The former breakfast show co-host with Martin Day, who has worked on the radio in the region for almost 25 years, will be on-air each weekday from 10am till 1pm.
Su said: “I’m beyond thrilled to announce that I have a new radio show of my own! It’s going to be an absolute blast – this opportunity only came up just over a week ago,and I can’t wait to kick things off on Monday!”
James Jones, CEO of Kube Media, added: “We are absolutely delighted to have Su join the Kube Media family.
“She’s become a true favourite with Essex listeners, and now with her brand-new solo venture, we’re excited to bring even more of her infectious energy and charm to the Essex airwaves!”
Martin and Su were first put together on Essex FM in 2000, before the station was rebranded to Heart in 2009.
Due to networking at local radio stations and cuts, Martin and Su were then left without a home in May 2019 before Radio Essex signed them up. She left in December.

Experienced individuals to launch new bilingual radio station in Wales
A group of experienced individuals are planning to launch a new bilingual independent radio station for Wales called SŵnCymru.
The un-named former radio station managers say The Sound of Wales aims to fill the gap in the Welsh broadcasting landscape by offering independent programming that appeals to young people and representing regions from across the country.
They add that the station will serve as a platform to promote Welsh music and culture.
In a statement to RadioToday, they say: “We are looking for individuals interested in supporting the initiative by becoming sponsors, advertising on the station, working on programs, or simply by listening and raising awareness.”
The station’s website says it will be on DAB and online in the coming months.
