Exhilaration as radio presenter embarks on 54 hour radiothon to raise money for charity
The countdown is on as one radio presenter takes on a mammoth 54-hour charity radiothon - which has kicked off this morning.
Express FM’s breakfast presenter, Ian James, has started a 54-hour live broadcasting marathon from 6am this morning (Wednesday, November 19), where he will remain on air non-stop until 12pm on Friday (November 21), in a bid to raise money for Spark Community Space, Portsmouth Hospitals Charity and Enable Ability.
Ian kick started the morning with Express Breakfast alongside Hannah Murray, Grace Taylor & Maxine Bailey-Green.
Harrison RB, Express FM’s content manager, said: “This is a huge undertaking and fair play to Ian for stepping up to support three brilliant causes that make a real difference here in Portsmouth.
Throughout the challenge, Ian will co-host regular programmes across the three days as well as host special guest interviews, interactive games, charity features and chances to win prizes.
You can tune in throughout the marathon on 93.7 FM, DAB+ Digital Radio, online or on Alexa.
So far Ian has raised a total of £115 and donations to the fundraiser can be made here.
