Richard Lawrence

With a broadcasting career spanning back to the 1980s, Richard Lawrence brings decades of experience, personality and passion to the airwaves. From the days of spinning vinyl to mastering today’s modern digital studios, his love for radio has never wavered.

He began his on-air journey with Vectis Radio on the Isle of Wight before joining Outreach Radio in its early days, becoming a familiar and trusted voice for listeners. His warm, engaging style and carefully curated music selection have made him a firm favourite with Sunday audiences.

Each week, he eases listeners into the day with a thoughtfully structured programme starting with a relaxed, laid-back soundtrack before building into a more uplifting and inspirational second hour.

Regular features include:

• Ideas on a Shoestring – practical money-saving inspiration
• The Morning Thought – reflective and thought-provoking moments
• The Two-Minute Gardening Challenge – expert tips packed into just 120 seconds

It’s the perfect blend of companionship, positivity and community connection to start the day right.

Richard also presents Songs of Worship on our sister station, Outreach Classical, bringing a mix of modern and traditional gospel music to Sunday mornings.

As Richard says:
“If I can bring a smile to people’s faces, give them company and move them, then I’ve achieved everything I set out to do.”
