Apr

ARfm are saddened to report the passing of Donna C at just 44 years old, one of the founders/co-owner of the station and, prior to the onset of her illness, the regular host of the College Rock Show. Donna was diagnosed with a very aggressive form of dementia at the age of 37 and has battled the disease for the last 8 years. Having started up the Alice’s Records Group when she was 18 she created one of the best recognised retail/mail order outlets in the UK for rock and metal which she continued to run up to her illness.

Rock has lost a champion!

RIP Donna.
