Penny Smith comes to 91.8 Hayes FM from Mount Vernon Hospital Radio. She lives in West Drayton and loves it because of the good access to motorways, airport and rail/bus links. Since retiring from a career in international management and training, she qualified as a fitness instructor and runs regular exercise, Pilates and Nordic Walking classes, specialising in fitness for people over 'a certain age'. She also has a tap dance group and is founder and director of Associated Tap Dancers, a UK-wide organisation for tappers.
Join Penny on Sunday at midday with a look at the weekend national and local stories, plus interviews and music with a focus for people over 60. Expect to hear music from the 20's to the 60's - another programme on 91.8 Hayes FM unlike any other you will hear.
