Embrace Radio is a local digital station focused on listeners across Northamptonshire, Leicestershire, Rutland and Stamford. It is built around an upbeat mainstream music format, but unlike a faceless jukebox stream it leans heavily on live presentation, local personality and a schedule that gives the area its own on-air identity. That matters, because plenty of stations claim to be local while sounding like they could be coming from absolutely anywhere.

The station’s core weekday line-up is straightforward and strong. Breakfast with Paul Moore starts the day, Chance Litchfield keeps things moving through daytime, and Paul Fairclough fronts Drivetime with a show aimed squarely at listeners heading home across the East Midlands. Around that spine, Embrace mixes in specialist programmes and weekend shows covering decade music, dance, chart content and presenter-led entertainment rather than just dumping the same safe playlist on repeat.

Embrace Radio is also clearly trying to be easy to access wherever people listen now. The station promotes DAB coverage across its target patch, online listening, smart-speaker access and TV platforms including Freeview and Freely. For listeners in Northamptonshire and nearby counties who want a station with a broader regional footprint but still enough presenter warmth to feel alive, Embrace Radio is a much better proposition than thin automated local branding.

Notable shows & presenters are:

• Paul Moore – Breakfast: Paul Moore hosts Breakfast, the main weekday breakfast show carrying the station through the morning across Northamptonshire, Leicestershire, Rutland and Stamford.
• Chance Litchfield – Daytime: Chance Litchfield presents Daytime, keeping listeners company through the middle of the day with music and live links across Northamptonshire and Leicestershire.
• Paul Fairclough – Drivetime: Paul Fairclough fronts Drivetime, the weekday drive home show for Rutland, Stamford, Northamptonshire and Leicestershire.
• Jim Byrne – Saturday Breakfast: Jim Byrne hosts Saturday Breakfast, one of the station’s best-known weekend shows and winner of Northamptonshire Radio Show of the Year at the Corby Music Awards.
• Gavin Mills – Embrace the 80s / Friday Party / The Golden Hour: Gavin Mills is a key specialist presenter on Embrace, hosting Embrace the 80s, the Gavin Mills Friday Party and The Golden Hour.
• Lee Everest – Dance Party Weekly: Lee Everest brings club-focused energy to the schedule with Dance Party Weekly, giving Embrace a dedicated dance strand alongside its mainstream output.
