V8 Supercar drivers Steven Johnson and Fabian Coulthard raced into visit the kids at Radio Lollipop at the Gold Coast Hospital this week.

The kids had great fun hearing stories about them racing cars at great speed, and joking and painting hand prints with the drivers. The guys also brought in some racing suits and a helmet which lots of the kids tried on and had their photos taken.

Steve and Fabian were interviewed on air by patient Ashleigh, who did a fantastic debut job as DJ and asked some very probing questions. Very professional!

Radio Lollipop Gold Coast would like to thank Steven and Fabian and everyon involved in making this visit happen. You are welcome to race back in anytime, and best of luck for the upcoming racing season!

Radio Lollipop Queensland would like to thank the team at Pacific Magazines, publishers of K-Zone, Girlfriend, TotalGirl & TV Hits for donating 2000 copies of their magazines to Radio Lollipop.

These totally cool mag’s are now available for children at the Gold Coast Hospital, Mater Children’s Hospital and Logan Hospital and are going inside our Welcome Packs which are personally delivered by our fabulous Radio Lollipop volunteers to each child.

The magazines are full of great games and activities to keep the children occupied while Radio Lollipop is off air.

A huge thank you to the team at Pacific Magazines for their very generous donation to Radio Lollipop at the Gold Coast Hospital, Mater Children’s Hospital in Brisbane and the Logan Hospital.

Thanks guys – the kids love them!!!!
