BBC Radio Wales will come to Llandrindod Wells on Wednesday, November 14, as part of the station's 40th anniversary.

The station is embarking on a tour across the length and breadth of Wales and Llandrindod Wells is one of the towns the branded BBC Radio Wales tour bus will be pitching-up in for a special broadcast.

The English-language radio station's tour bus will be parked at the top of Middleton Street.

Jason Mohammad will be discussing Wales and the NHS, asking if people who live in the country get a bad deal when it comes to the health service. Do people in rural Wales have access to the vital services they need, including A&E, their GP and dentist?

Wynne Evans will be meeting the Mayor of Llandrindod Wells, Jon Williams. He’ll be talking with local upcycler Partick Sheehy about his business and his upcycling classes. Sharron Hammond, the treasurer of the town’s Victorian theatre - the Albert Hall - will discuss their upcoming bingo fundraising effort to raise money to install a new heating system and explains what makes the hall so important to the local people.

Wynne will also be talking to volunteers from the local repair cafe, which helps the community avoid wastage and keep their old clothes and appliances running.

And Kate Knight tells Eleri Siôn about the forthcoming weekend’s Real Ale Wobble, a biking and beer event which passes through Llandrindod Wells, marking the start of the Mid Wales Beer Festival. And there’s more midweek money advice from Jasmine Birtles.

Radio Wales Editor Colin Paterson says: “The last 40 years have been a wonderful journey for Radio Wales and we’re really looking forward to taking our birthday bus on the road, packed with our favourite presenters and programmes. We’re going to celebrate our big 40 with listeners across Wales and you can follow every twist and turn on Radio Wales throughout the week.”

The anniversary tour continues on Thursday at Barmouth before reaching Connah's Quay on Friday.
