Dave Turley
Born in Liverpool, I have always had a huge interest in Music and Radio. My own journey into media, as a career, started off with me working as a D.J in local clubs . Where I got to work with lots of big names and great club acts. All this fun and a day Job too.
Working as an Electrician, initially for a Southport based company, then off to Lapland (Leyland Assembly Plant) Putting the wiring harnesses into commercial vehicles, before working for a multi national German Company working as a Service Engineer.
As a hobby I was also presenting shows on Hospital Radio in Whiston. I then took a short break from my hobby to get married and have two great kids, Rachel And Peter.
I continued my radio interest at Radio Ormskirk General, where I regularly presented programmes and hosted community road shows to raise funds for the station. My first commercial radio break took me to Lancaster where i presented various shows. It was there I met Carol (from Turley Towers).
I had worked for a number of other stations before coming home to roost full time at Dune 107.9 on the 5th July 2002 after presenting the Weekend Breakfast Shows.
You can find me Presenting The Dune Drivetime Show from 3.00pm weekdays.
