Hits Radio Pride, a national digital radio station part of the Hits Radio network, has been broadcasting since August 2020 and is set to
expand its distribution in April 2024.

About Hits Radio Pride

Hits Radio Pride was the UK’s first national commercial LGBTQ+ radio station by a major broadcaster. As a sister station to Hits Radio, the
station is a fresh and unique destination where the LGBTQ+ community, advocates and allies can feel connected, safe and proud to be
themselves. In addition to entertaining audiences by playing music much-loved by the community, Hits Radio Pride is a trusted platform
that inspires, educates and informs listeners of LGBTQ+ issues and encourages inclusion and tolerance. This includes award-winning
content such as ‘Tough Talks’ – exploring the hard conversations the community have around coming out – or ‘Faith, Sex and Me’ –
discovering how people balance being part of the community with their religion. Hits Radio Pride also works with LGBT charity helpline,
Switchboard (https://switchboard.lgbt), to promote support services.

Ye Olde Bell thankfully has a range of rooms, suites and lodges, meaning it can accommodate single travellers as well as families and
large groups. With its onsite spa, and three eateries, it’s a destination in its own right – and perfect for any occasion.

We were pleased to check out St Leger Bistro-by-the-Bar during our stay at the beautiful Ye Olde Bell in Retford recently. The food at the
