Gen X Radio Suffolk is the brainchild of local radio legend (his words) James Hazell, who has been serving the listeners of East Anglia for over 35 years. In that time, Suffolk has seen a dramatic demise of local commercial radio. Suffolk was one of the first to launch local radio in 1975 with Radio Orwell and we now have no commercial stations broadcasting from here. This not only presents a huge reduction in listener choice but financially prohibits small to medium sized businesses from the proven benefits of radio advertising.

The mission of James and his team is to bring genuine and affordable local radio back to Suffolk. The station will be a lively entertaining mix of chat, news and debate, laced with the brilliant music of the last sixty years. And, of course, we’ll have plenty of fun.

The radio station will be a proud advocate of Suffolk. We will support those who are making a positive difference to Suffolk life and we will challenge those in a position to affect our county. We will forge relationships with the county’s listeners and businesses alike and provide a trusted friend and an engaging and entertaining platform for all.

The proud county of Suffolk deserves a radio station to be proud of… Our mission at GenX Radio Suffolk is to be that radio station
