The Archers

Things to Do

A few ideas, whether you're a die-hard fan or a newcomer.

  • Go on a radio course and learn how to make your own programmes!

  • Become a hospital radio volunteer - people are often needed behind the scenes as well as in front of the microphone. The Hospital Broadcasting Association can help you find your nearest station.

  • Visit the BBC's own Archers website - catch up on episodes, find out more about the characters and have a go at the quizzes. Or take a look at the Archers Addicts website.

  • Explore a farm! The Soil Association has a network of over 50 organic farms across the UK. All are open to the public and some run education visits for schools and colleges covering science, geography and PSHE/citizenship. Click here for more details on farm visits
