Denise Phillips - Radio Sussex

Hello, I am trying to find anyone that remembers Denise Phillips who lived in Bexhill on Sea for many years. She was a volunteer producer and presenter (occasionally paid I think) making her own radio programme "Listen and Sea" - for the blind and partially sighted. This was broadcast for 15 minutes every Sunday afternoon on Radio Sussex, and she used to produce it from her own studio at home. I think it started around 1982/3 until possibly 1990. What ever happened to the archive of this series? It was not retained by the BBC. Denise died in 1991 I think. I started doing freelance radio features around this time for Radio Sussex, and indeed contributed on occasion to "Listen and See". But what ever happened to Denise, her camper van always with her dog in the back, her never ending series broadcast week in week out, and all the reels of tape the show was recorded on?
