What is TheSprout?

TheSprout is Cardiff’s information and blogging website for 11-25’s, by 11-25’s and organisations that wish to support them.

The site is split into two main sections: info, and blog.

• Info is where you can find lots of information and support for topics affecting young people such as leaving school, bullying, and money worries. Under each section, you’ll find a bunch of really handy links to local and national organisations that can help you out with whatever you may need.

• Blog is where our amazing articles written by young people are shared. There’s something here for everyone – from local opportunities to finding out about someone’s story and raising awareness of important topics like children’s and young people’s rights.

ProMo-Cymru has been funded to deliver TheSprout by Families First in Cardiff. All media content is overseen by an editor who is employed by ProMo-Cymru.

Each season, we release a new campaign surrounding issues that matter to young people, by young people in Cardiff. Here are some of our recent campaigns:

• Voices Of Lockdown: COVID-19 Experiences
