Hi I’m Russ,

I have been volunteering for online radio since 2011.

My main occupation is a bus driver for Bournemouth Transport which is the yellow buses you will see in the area.

I am a very keen photographer in my spare time and you can check out my Instagram to see some of my work.

Russ joined TRUK in February 2020, left for a break in November 2022 and came back in January 2023
