Kelvin, Maggie and Leisha

Kelvin & Maggie Currie have been with Vectis Radio almost from the beginning and have played an integral role in its existence. Maggie has been key to securing various funding over the years and continues to play a key role in all the stations fundraising efforts. Kelvin is Vectis Radio’s technical magician! Its debatable whether you would be able to hear the station were it not for Kelvin’s knowledge of what plugs in to where. He has successfully produced many of our outside broadcasts which have all been a huge success.

Both Kelvin & Maggie also present various shows on Vectis Radio with Maggie presenting the Weekend Breakfast shows as well as The ‘For Women By Women Show’ with Kitty. She also reads the weekend news bulletins. Kelvin has presented ‘The Retro Show’ for a number of years which is packed full of yesterday’s classic hits.

Together, with Leisha  a former 4ps student The Currie’s currently present ‘The Tuesday Afternoon Show’. You can be sure that whichever show they are presenting, it will be full of humour, warmth and plenty of special guests.
