Radio Dusthole in the news
"Hosted by Mendip-based service manager James Ball, Radio Dusthole not only entertains but also empowers, featuring staff and clients from Julian House—a charity dedicated to helping those who have experienced homelessness rebuild their lives."
"Unlike typical discussions about homelessness, the show avoids a downbeat tone. the program focuses on music, lighthearted chats, and stories that highlight the resilience and humour of its guests. While clients sometimes share their experiences with rough sleeping, it's entirely their choice, ensuring a safe and supportive platform."

BBC News Later, in March 2025, the BBC news website picked up the story and published their own article: "Helping homeless people 'find a voice' on radio". The article revealed the reason for the name of the show being that 'The Dusthole in Shepton Mallet used to be a well known local pub.'
