Frank Williams is to step down from his work with Radio Hereford FC at the end of the season.
Frank told BN why he has taken this decision.
'I have decided that I will be stepping down from my role as Station Manager of RadioHerefordFC at the end of this season.
There are two main reasons for this:
Firstly
the reduced mobility that I now have resulting from my stroke 8 years
ago. This is progressively worsening and I shall be 73 in April so it is
unlikely to improve.
Secondly, the distances
involved. It is a 100 mile round trip to a home game and I am
increasingly reliant on lifts for both home and away fixtures.
I
have been offered a role creating a new radio station for Halesowen
Town Football Club and the local community which is a quarter of a mile
from my home.
This will allow me to
dedicate more time to the charity work my wife and I do for Target
Ovarian Cancer in memory of our late daughter.
I
am not going to give out a list of thanks. I will thank each individual
personally over the coming weeks. I will also be able to attend
Hereford matches as a fan for a change when time allows next season.
I
will work closely with The Club and the Radio Station to ensure that
everything is in place for what promises to be an exciting 2024-25.'
