Signal 1 has no automated shows and is locally programmed 24 hours per day, 7 days per week - with the exception of Hit40UK from 16.00 to 19.00 on Sunday evenings.

'Every year -Help a Signal Child-, our own fundraising appeal, raises thousands of pounds for local children's charities and appeals throughout Staffordshire and Cheshire. We raise money with a number of events throughout the year, including the 'Walkathon' - a local walk which has raised thousands over the past decade and continues to do so.
