Oct 5th 2006 - MERIDIAN FM ALL SET TO BE TUNED IN (East Grinstead Courier)

The town took another step towards having its very own radio station on Monday evening as Meridian FM officially moved into offices in East Court.

Lee Quinn, managing director of the station, which will be on air from 6am to midnight from November 27 to Christmas Eve, said the East Court location was ideal.

He said: "It's a dream to have Meridian FM on the Meridian Line."

The radio station will now take up residence in two rooms in East Court Mansion, one of which will be used as a studio and one as an office and production suite.

Mr Quinn said there had been a great response from the community so far, but the station still needed people to help with both presenting and behind the scenes.

He said: "We've got presenters from outside the town but we want people from East Grinstead, Forest Row and Lingfield."

Application forms for those wishing to be involved are available at the library, post office and Jingles music store.
