Well same name but we have merged with another station in the Essex area to give a greater range of programmes for you to listen to. The majority of existing Switch presenters still have their own shows but some are now broadcast at different times. The full schedule can be found here, but the new times for existing shows are:
- Jon’s Jukebox at 8pm Friday
- After Eight at 8pm Monday
- Flitch Switch at 8pm Tuesday
- A New Dawn at 8pm Wednesday
- Boogie with Stu at 8pm Saturday
- Funky Blues at 6pm Saturday
- Money, Money, Money at 7pm Sunday
With the change to the new schedule none of the above shows will be live in the studio.
Switch Dunmow …..
I
s the brain child of Jacky Rom, the Station Controller.
Over 4 years ago Jacky, who also runs the Arts Centre Dunmow, was struggling to let everyone know what goes on in The Arts Centre.
One day she thought “Let’s have a radio Station” and now 2+ years on it’s become a reality. Switch Dunmow launched on Monday 6th of January 2014 with over 50 Volunteers. They were all amazed that over 3,000 people listened in the first month.
Now they are listened to by over 20 countries world wide and have over 34,000 listener sessions per annum!
Although Switch is a Community Radio Station, all the presenters love the idea of reaching further afield.
Switch Dunmow has a show for everyone, with easy listening throughout the day and live shows from 6pm.
If you are interested in joining us a volunteer do get in touch!

Here’s the latest news from Jacky ….
Hi all... Well! what an experience lockdown was....But as a really positive person I needed to stay sane... So here is what I undertook.....
I filmed 3 seasons of a new YOUTUBE series all from my bedroom.... 'Jacky Rom Investigates'.... I took on nearly all the roles, from editing, camera and directing... It was full on and something positive to work towards....
It's been really well received and lots of people are watching.... www.youtube.com/c/jackyrom
At the same time as I'm a Drama teacher all my classes reverted to online... Lots of Drama teachers were asking for ideas... So I wrote a book!
Virtual Class plans and I'm so happy to announce it's been my most successful book ever and i'm now writing book 16...
I'm so proud of everyone at Switch Dunmow... We kept on air without any downtime... Every Presenter dealt with what needed to be done... You are all Brilliant !!!!!!
