Simon’s radio journey began at just 19 on B97 Chiltern FM, before going on to present across stations including Mercia FM, Wyvern FM, Northants 96, Hereward FM, Q103, and Star Radio in Cambridge. He also hosted shows across The Mixnetwork during his time with GWR/GCAP — building a wealth of experience that shines through on every show.

After moving into the NHS ambulance service in 2005, Simon never lost his love for broadcasting — and Weekend Anthems is proof that great radio never leaves you.
