BBC Radio Gloucestershire breakfast show presenter Mark Cummings has announced he’s leaving the BBC after 40 years in radio.
Mark shared the news with his listeners saying he’s leaving the industry a couple of years earlier than he planned but is lucky to be moving to another job he loves in another industry.
He added he decided not to apply for his own job when put at risk of redundancy, and he’ll be going in July this year.
