HLR is an internet radio station, set up, owned and managed by Andy and Patricia Mellett Brown. HLR is affiliated to and supported by Heckington Living, the voluntary group that publishes Heckington’s village magazine. Andy and Patricia established the station in March 2020 in response to the Coronavirus Pandemic. The idea was that by keeping us connected with each other, our families and friends, we could help to mitigate some of the effects of social isolation and loneliness caused by ‘lockdown’. The advantage of internet radio is that it can be listened to anywhere, meaning that people can listen together with their families and friends, wherever they are.
