Cherry fell into radio presenting really by happy accident, when she saw a poster advertising for BFBS volunteer jocks, and thought “sure that would be a bit of a laugh!” So she started as a volunteer, while continuing to work as a cardiology nurse, but finally decided to swap bed pans for headphones permanently, and is glad she doesn’t get the two confused – well not recently!
Off air Cherry, a busy mum of two, also has four dogs and has already achieved her lifetime ambition of breeding and qualifying a dog for Crufts dog show! She still finds time to be active in the local am dram group, The Holywood Players, as well as being the clubs secretary, her roles have included a French floozy, a pub landlady and the mother in law from hell, means it’s no surprise she gets a bit confused at times!
