Rhodri Buttrick
Presenter
Rhodri has many years of on-air experience, including stints on commercial radio across the UK and internationally on Kiss FM Portugal. He presented his first show on Hospital Radio Reading.
He is also a stand-up comic known for his eccentric style. This brings an air of unpredictability to his radio shows.
Rhodri is like a radio, rail replacement bus! We send him to cover shows and hosts our live events.
