Meet Tom Priestly
Founder, Magna Radio
Tom Priestly
Tom Priestley is the founder of Magna Radio and a broadcaster with deep roots in Lincolnshire radio. With experience that stretches back to the late 1980s, he has built Magna around a simple idea, great music, real local voices and a station that feels connected to the communities it serves.
A former Lincs FM broadcaster, Tom combines on-air experience with a strong behind-the-scenes vision for modern local radio. His presenting style is warm, friendly and down to earth, shaped by a genuine love of music and a long-standing passion for broadcasting.
Beyond radio, Tom brings a wider creative and technical background to the role. He has a professional acting background, an interest in electronics, and a strong commitment to family, community and local identity. Under his leadership, Magna Radio has grown as a station built to support local charities, celebrate regional stories and give Lincolnshire a platform of its own.
