TO RECOGNISE THE STAFF AT THE BAY RADIO FOR THEIR SELFLESS ACT OF COMMUNITY SPIRIT DURING STORM DESMOND.
WE THE UNDERSIGNED WOULD LIKE TO SAY ANASSIVE THANKYOU BT OBTAINING ROYAL RECOGNITION FOR ALL THE HARD WORK OF DANNY MATTHEWS AND THE TEAM AT THE BAY RADIO FOR THE PEOPLE OF LANCASTER MORECAMBE CARNFORTH AND CUMBRIA DURING THE DEVASTATING STORM DESMOND.
WE HAD NO ELECTRICITY AT ALL FOR OVER 30 HOURS - DANNY AND THE TEAM NEVER LEFT THE STUDIO CEASELESSLY BROADCASTING THROUGHOUT THIS TIME EVEN THOUGH THE STUDIO IN LANCASTER WAS FLOODED AND EVERYONE HAD TO EVACUATE TO AN UPSTAIRS STUDIO.
THEY WERE JUST AS COLD AND HUNGRY AS THE REST OF US BUT THEY NEVER WENT OFF AIR KEEPING US INFORMED OF WHAT WAS HAPPENING, UPDATING REGULARLY, BROADCASTING SPECIFIC REQUESTS TO HELP THOSE IN DIFFICULTY AND TELLING US WHERE TO GET FOOD AND SUPPLIES.
THEY HELPED TO KEEP US CALM AND MADE US FEEL LESS SCARED AND LAUGH WITH THEIR BANTER DURING AN EXTREMELY HAZARDOUS TIME - WITHOUT THESE VOICES IN THE DARK THERE WOULD HAVE BEEN MUCH MORE DISTRESS AND PANIC.
