Month: June 2024

Specials & Fundraiser

We streamed a special live show from our ship on Sunday 23rd June 2024 presented by Garry Lee, with guests. Many thanks to all who tuned in and sent us messages during the show! We discussed, for the first time, the arson attack on our ship , studio damage, the court case and our recovery.

As announced during the live show, coming up on Saturday 29th June is an all day fundraiser (in aid of our recovery fund) at Hotbox, Chelmsford. Tickets https://dice.fm

LV18 Mi Amigo

Studio restoration

The studio was put back together for the Easter broadcast but since then has been taken apart for further restoration.

Over the last weekend it was put back into use as we tested our CD and Minidisk players, recently restored.

Visiting the LV18

Update: The LV18 re-opened to visitors at the start of June after an extensive cleaning and restoration project for the least affected areas of the ship.

Can you help?

Please note that because of our recent fire the ship is not open to visitors at the moment. Sadly this means that if you come to Harwich then it won’t be possible for you to walk aboard. We hope to re-open the ship to visitors later in the year and will put an announcement on here and on our social channels when we have definite information.
