Talk by David Clayton, BBC Radio Norfolk

Saturday 14 June 2025 at 7pm: Wickhampton church

"My journey through radio".

David Clayton is coming up to fifty years in local broadcasting.  In that time he's been on local radio, national radio and regional TV.  Now he works with journalism students who will be the next generation of broadcasters.

Born in Yorkshire, David moved to Gorleston-on-Sea in 1963 (his favourite place in Norfolk), so he’s very nearly a local now!

He fell into being a disc-jockey and was plying his trade round the clubs and dance halls of Norfolk back in the disco days of the 1970s. He also began broadcasting on Hospital Radio and, when the BBC was looking to launch Radio Norfolk in 1980, he persuaded them to give him a chance.

The rest, as they say, is history!

Tickets: £7.50 – cash on the door please.

The church cafe will be open for refreshments.
