When I first heard about Agência de Redes para a Juventude (The Agency) about 6 years ago I thought that this would be a dream project to work on, here I am 6 years later and the dream, has come true.

The Agency has allowed me to operate in mine and surrounding communities with young people, helping with them to help address some of the social issues we face.

Working with young people (Agents) from the Butetown Riverside and Grangetown areas…

The first time I heard about the Agency I was drawn to the project, its ethos, its approach, the possibilities a…

Late last year I was fortunate to be awarded a Creative Wales Award from the Arts Council Wales. 

Im interested in the 3rd Industrial Revolution and what roles art can/will play in the revolution.

I have just spent a week creating the first response, A VR/360 video…

Hello all.

I’ve been involved with NTW for the last five years in various ways, working for the company for the last four and a half and this experience has been, in everyway, life changing.
