BBC Radio Swindon raise money for Prospect Hospice

 

There were no bangers and beans in sight yesterday, as the BBC Radio Swindon breakfast crew took to the town to raise money for the Prospect Hospice with an all-day breakfast show.

 

Cooking up a treat for the Prospect: Shaun Hodgetts and the BBC Radio Swindon breakfast team

 

Popular breakfast presenter Shaun Hodgetts and his crew drove a marathon 26 miles around Swindon between 6am and 10pm, stopping off at every opportunity to meet people, and shake their buckets in aid of the Swindon charity.

 

Shaun said: "They do a fantastic job for our local community and touch the lives of most of us. We hope to do a fantastic job for them."
