Its sister station, Ashbourne Radio, broadcast from Ashbourne on 96.7 FM (Ashbourne) and 101.8 FM (Wirksworth & Uttoxeter). On 4 November 2019, both stations relaunched as Imagine Radio, sharing off-peak programming with its sister station in Stockport.

In June 2021, Bauer Media announced[1] that they were buying the Imagine Radio stations from the Like Media Group, which would be merged into the Greatest Hits Radio network on 1 September 2021.[2]

Several former High Peak Radio presenters joined a competing online station called Peak Sound Radio, formed after the closure of the Imagine stations.
