They have a whole network of radio stations, offering a mix of music, news, and fun for troops in the UK and across the globe.

But amongst all these channels, there's one that stands out - BFBS Gurkha Radio. It's like a little piece of home for the brave Gurkha soldiers stationed far away.

You can hear the familiar melodies and lyrics, keeping them connected to their heritage even while they're serving their country.
BFBS Gurkha Radio's motto sums it up perfectly: "Entertain, Inform, Connect, Champion". They aim to keep the Gurkhas entertained, informed about what's happening back home, connected to their culture, and proud of their service.
