Ian Saint James

Sundays at 17:00

LET’S TALK ABOUT…

Join Ian on Sunday afternoons when he’ll be speaking to a broad range of people from the local community: anyone with an interesting story to tell, maybe doing something unique in business, representing a community group or with an interesting hobby or local connection.

If you have any questions or comments, or if you would like to appear on the programme, please contact us via email, Facebook or on Twitter @sydradio.
