Sunshine Radio (Ludlow) is an Independent Local Radio station based in Ludlow, Shropshire. The station currently serves south Shropshire, north Herefordshire and north Worcestershire.

Sunshine Radio in Ludlow dates back to the late-1970s. In the summer of 1986 a special event radio station for the Stoke-on-Trent national garden festival occupied the 1017 kHz frequency. It was to be 12 months before Sunshine was heard again The Government once again announced plans for community radio licences in 1988. In 1990 the Sunshine management formed a new company, South Shropshire Communications Ltd. They were granted a test and development licence. In 1992, the Radio Authority advertised a licence for Ludlow and South Shropshire. South Shropshire Communications Ltd applied and won the licence finally taking to the air on 18 October 1992 as Sunshine 855. The new transmitters were still at Villa Farm with studios in a converted house in Ludlow. In 2013 Sunshine Radio won a broadcasting licence to take the Ludlow version of the station onto the FM band.
