Ruth Cooper-Dickson shows
Ruth (aka Coops) is your Friday morning presenter on Good Morning Chelmsford. Easing you into the weekend with feel-good tunes, real talk, and just the right amount of cheeky chaos.
Originally from Derby and now proudly based in Southend, Ruth is a speaker, writer, presenter, and wellbeing expert with a long-standing love for music, movement, and meaningful conversation. As a regular runner and former fitness instructor, she incorporates that background into everything she does, consistently blending fun, warmth, and a dose of reality.
When she’s not on air, you’ll find her writing her weekly newsletter, Coffee with Coops, sneaking off for solo cinema nights—no sharing popcorn, please—sea swimming (yes, she is mad!), running, or curled up with a romantasy novel and a slice of cake.
Ruth believes radio should feel like a warm cuppa with your favourite mate, relaxed, honest, and a little bit unexpected.
Expect local Fitness Friday guests, fun music that makes the weekend feel like it’s on its way, and plenty of laughs to kick-start your weekend.
