Heart Kent is the Kent version of Heart, carrying the network’s upbeat pop, feel-good favourites and familiar presenters while retaining a strong county association through local news, travel, advertising and Kent-focused updates.
The station has deep roots in Kent commercial radio. Before becoming Heart, the service was known to many listeners as Invicta FM, one of the county’s best-known radio names. That heritage still matters because the Kent feed continues to serve a wide area, from the coastal towns of Thanet and Dover through to Canterbury, Ashford, Maidstone and Medway.
For everyday listening, Heart Kent suits people who want a bright, mainstream music mix with recognisable songs, presenter-led daytime shows and regular local information. It works well in the background at home, at work or while travelling around Kent.
Heart Kent’s FM coverage is spread across several local frequencies because of Kent’s geography and the county’s position near the English Channel. Online listening keeps things simpler, giving Kent listeners one easy way to hear the station without switching between local FM signals.
Notable shows & presenters are:
- Jamie Theakston and Amanda Holden: Heart Breakfast brings the network’s biggest morning show to Heart Kent, mixing entertainment, music, celebrity guests and feel-good features.
- Ashley Roberts: Ashley Roberts is part of Heart’s breakfast line-up, adding showbiz, entertainment and music features to the morning schedule.
