Long-running Swansea radio station The Wave is to start broadcasting the majority of its schedule from outside of Wales
The change will see presenter Jamie Pritchard, who has been at the station since 2013, performing his last show on May 13, while it will be swapping out some of its local programmes for national ones. Other than the weekday Breakfast shows which will retain local news and local traffic content, from May 16 the rest of the schedule will be taken from Hits Radio hubs based in England and Scotland.
Gary Stein, content director for the Hits Radio Network, said: “We send our huge thanks to Jamie for keeping us all greatly entertained on weekdays, I hope you’ll join me in saying farewell as he signs off from his shows next month before this new chapter.” You can get more Swansea news and other story updates by subscribing to our newsletters here.
