WESTON General Hospital's Sunshine Radio has won first prize in this year's North Somerset Good Neighbour Awards.
The radio station received the £200 first prize from North Somerset Council chairman Councillor David Shopland.
The awards are sponsored by take-away company Miss Millie's Fried Chicken and organised in conjunction with the council. The entrants were judged by a panel of councillors and officers from North Somerset Council.
The awards were created to recognise achievement by groups working in the community.
Sunshine Hospital Radio is a charity that provides a free radio service for Weston General Hospital's patients 24 hours a day and 365 days each year.
The station's PR officer Marcus Tripp said: "We are delighted to have won this award and the funds will go towards helping us to introduce a CD collection to replace the rather well used and tired records we use for responding to patient requests.
