Radio WestFife is one of Scotland s oldest Hospital radio hospital radio station s and broadcasts by landline to the Queen Margaret Hospital in Dunfermline . From its humble beginnings in September 1953, when broadcasting was from a shed in the grounds of the WestFife Hospital, the station has grown considerably. This has been achieved partly through the fundraising efforts of the members and partly through sponsorships. In the early days the station focused on live broadcasts from Dunfermline Athletic Football Club s home games at East End Park , but now broadcasts a diverse mix of music and specialist output including religious programmes. Following a spell of broadcasting from a caravan at Milesmark Hospital, the station moved to the grounds of Lynebank Hospital in 1993. With a full and varied schedule of programmes Radio WestFife continues to provide a valuable service to the patients of the Queen Margaret Hospital. Pupils from nearby St Columbus High School have been known to volunteer at Radio WestFife as part of school community outreach programmes. The station began broadcasting online as a community radio station on 23rd March 2012. Current facilities Hospital Radio WestFife is based in the heart of Queen Margaret Hospital in Dunfermline. Currently located in the old section of the hospital, the station boasts one newly reburbished studio and a large record library. Radio WestFife broadcasts to patient headsets on channel 1 and online on their website.
