Tulip Radio

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Tulip Radio is one of the local radio stations of Spalding, Lincolnshire. The name is linked to Spalding's heavy involvement with the horticulture industry, and Tulips are one flower the town is famous for. In addition, the town hosts the annual Spalding Flower Parade (once named the Tulip parade, and still heavily based on Tulips) every year at the beginning of May. The station has an annual float in the Spalding Flower Parade.

Tulip Radio is one of few radio stations nationally to offer media training to secondary students in local schools from its New Road studios.

The station is regularly involved in community events such as Springfields fireworks, and at Macmillan cancer fun days.

This year, the station also took on the job of finding the South Holland Flower Queen to be the leading lady of the Spalding Flower Parade and as last year runs the Battle of the Bands competition to find a group for the station's own float.
