Tributes paid to the late Roy Hamilton

BBC Radio Foyle - The Mark Patterson Show, Tributes paid to the late Roy Hamilton

Remembering Robert James(Roy) Hamilton one of the founding members of BBC Radio Foyle.

We learn of the recent passing of Robert James (Roy) Hamilton and we ask Is Derry the Bail-Hostel capital of Northern Ireland?

Great initiative in Dungiven to recognise the inspiring women in the community. Nollaig Na mBan – Dungiven Female Champions will be awarded to the inspiring women in the community, Glenda Mc Closkey from St Canice's Ladies GFC joins Mark. 
Is Derry the Bail-Hostel capital of Northern Ireland? These are temporary accommodation spaces for individuals who the courts release on bail but who lack a permanent address where police can find them. The State therefore has a responsibility to house them - and since Covid there has been a big rise in the number of private properties across NI being used for this purpose, Steve Bradley explains. And, remembering Robert James(Roy) Hamilton one of the founding members of BBC Radio Foyle.
