A new sound to mornings in North Derbyshire


Drivers on the work or school run around North Derbyshire now have a fresh new voice to kick-start the day.

Becky Hayes joins Ricky Durkin on Peak FM’s Breakfast Show from this week.  Becky’s no stranger to early starts having presented breakfast shows on some of the strongest stations in Yorkshire while having first hand local knowledge to bring to Breakfast on Peak FM.

The new show, which started on Monday 16th April, is set to be filled with callers, social media interaction and what the station describe as a few surprises.  Tim Smith, Content Controller at Peak FM, said:-

“It’s an exciting time for us: Ricky joined us in 2016 and has done an amazing job growing our audience and engagement.  I’m delighted to welcome Becky to the show where I know her warmth and confident delivery will be a big hit with listeners.”

Becky said on her new appointment:-

“Living just down the road I’m used to waking up to Peak FM Breakfast and singing along with my three year old daughter.  Now it’s going to be me playing the songs and doing all that crazy stuff.

“I love Chesterfield and the peak district is just beautiful.  Plus I get on really well with Ricky and we’ve got so many ideas to get our teeth into.”

Ricky said about his new co-presenter:-

“It feels like we’re overflowing with ideas at the mo. People in North Derbyshire love getting involved in the show and both Becky and myself love getting out and about so we’ll just be having lots of fun every morning.”
