Presenters: Dan Rous
Dan describes himself as: Husband. Father. Christian. Alongsider. Church/Community Developer. Broadcaster. Camerado. Development Coach. Apostle. And much more....
He is husband to Carol-Anne (since September 2004) and dad to River (July 2005), Hannah (February 2008) and Isla (April 2015.) Together, the Rous family lives in the Camelon area of Falkirk in Central Scotland with their crazy Cocker Spaniel, Scout, who joined them in July 2021.
Having worked in various Community and Social Enterprises across lots of Scottish Communities, in 2022 he took the plunge and became a freelance Church and Community Developer, having the privilege of working alongside churches and communities to help them grow and develop into what they are meant to be. He loves helping people and organisations to find their reason for existence.
Dan has been involved in broadcasting since the late 1980's (before he was born of course!) on hospital radio, and has dabbled with various input on and off since then, loving the opportunity especially now to use his love for radio alongside his love for God.
Favourite Band
Being a dad, I am drawn to say "elastic"! But for a real answer, I would say (rarely in the same sentence) ELO or Coldplay.
Favourite Genre of Music
I love a wide variety of music, but if pushed I would single out Musicals.
Favourite Author
Shockingly I'm not much of a reader these days. The last book I read though was by Andy B so I won't mention that!
Pro beard, or not?
Pro of course!
