Millside Radio provides hospital radio programmes 24 hours a day for people in King's Mill Hospital in Nottinghamshire, England, on the Mansfield and Ashfield border.
It started in 1989 as a part-time service using studios at Queen's Medical Centre, Nottingham, before moving into former offices at King's Mill, where it was officially opened by Jeremy Beadle.

Staffed entirely by volunteers, it is registered as a charity using the name Millside Hospital Radio.
