BBC Wake Up Call

Over the next four weeks, the team at BBC Wiltshire is running a special Wake Up Call – Your Head, Your Heart, Your Health series, aimed at promoting the message of preventing ill health and getting symptoms of illness checked as early as possible.

Interviewing many of our system colleagues during the campaign, Ben Prater will be taking BBC Radio Wiltshire Breakfast out on the road to Salisbury, Swindon, Trowbridge and Chippenham.

Ben’s Wake Up Call

It’s all about your head, your heart, your health and having the conversations you might sometimes shy away from.

Ben Prater will be taking BBC Radio Wiltshire Breakfast out on the road to Salisbury, Trowbridge and Chippenham.
