Former BBC Radio Sheffield’s Howard Pressman back on air in the city
Former Hallam FM and BBC Radio Sheffield presenter Howard Pressman is joining Radio Essentials to host a weekend show.
Howie left BBC Radio Sheffield last November following the changes in BBC local radio and will now host Sunday mornings 10am – 1pm on Radio Essentials across Sheffield and South Yorkshire from 10th November.
Howie said: “It’s been a year since my last radio show on BBC Radio Sheffield, so when the offer came in from Steve and the team at Radio Essentials to have a Sunday show, then I didn’t think twice.
“The new live show will be a chance to be involved again with some great listeners, who are as excited as I am that I’m back on the airwaves across Sheffield and South Yorkshire.”
A spokesperson for Radio Essentials said: “Radio Essentials is so excited to have Howie on board as we start to build a station dedicated to the people of Sheffield and South Yorkshire. This is just the start of our journey to become the number one commercial radio station in Sheffield.”
