SPECIAL - Pillars of Radio Maria - Val S.
Radio Maria UK
In this episode of Becoming a Pillar for Radio Maria, Helena Judd is joined by Val. Val lives with Myalgic Encephalomyelitis (ME/CFS), a condition that causes severe exhaustion which does not improve with rest and profoundly limits daily life. She shares how a friend's suggestion first led her to Florilegium, our poetry and gardening programme, and how another friend pointed her to Sarah de Nordwall's The Bardcast. Ever since, Radio Maria has been a source of comfort for Val, especially at night and in the hours when her body needs rest. Like a garden, the radio is full of variety, new discoveries and peace, a faithful companion through the quiet moments of her day. If something you hear stirs your heart, act on it. A regular monthly gift, whatever the amount, brings DAB to new towns, strengthens our studios and keeps Radio Maria on air, free from advertising and full of faith.
