The Ashdown Radio Community Awards 2025
The Ashdown Radio Community Awards took place on Friday 26th September at the East Sussex National Hotel in Uckfield.
The evening was hosted by the organiser of the awards and our Business Development Manager Gary King, ably assisted by Judith Austin CEO of Wealden Volunteering.
Nearly 300 people attended the event including Cllr Karen Bedwell - Mayor of Uckfield, Father John Wall, Rector of Holy Cross Church Uckfield and Mims Davies - MP for Uckfield & East Grinstead.
The event raised additional funds for both Wealden Volunteering and Ashdown Radio to help continue their work in our community.
