Evie Hoggard

Hello! It's always a pleasure to chat away on weekday afternoons from 1pm - 4pm.

Newark is a very special place to me, first helping out on my family vegetable stall on the market from about as soon as I could walk (maybe that's not quite true - it was earlier!)

Here, I discovered just how much I love talking to people - ten minute discussion on dogs with your cauliflower madam?

And I learnt just how much we have to be proud of in our town - from our rich history to our fantastic independent businesses and how we all come together to support them.

I love being part of Radio Newark because it supports and celebrates all that and more.

In my show it's easier to list what doesn't come up than what does! I like to look at interesting news and talk about the lighter side of life.

When I'm not on the radio -or selling vegetables- I'm studying a broadcast journalism degree at Nottingham Trent University and working as a receptionist in a business centre.

I am a longstanding member of Nottinghamshire Young Farmers and live with my husband-to-be Graham and greyhound cross staffy Millie (who are both very understanding about me sharing the details of our lives on the radio... most of the time!)

Hope you can tune in Mon - Fri 1pm - 4pm where a great mix of music and chatter awaits.
