Newid bywydau | Changing Lives - Celebrating Welsh charities and Volunteers

We were commissioned by the Wales Council for Voluntary Action (WCVA) to produce a film that celebrates Welsh charities and volunteers. This campaign focused on three stories from Brynawel House Rehab, Grange Pavilion and North Wales Wildlife Trust. It was produced for Welsh charities week with an aim to inspire people to donate to, volunteer for and champion Welsh charities. The film explored the work they do and the impact they have on their communities and local environments.

We were very proud to hear from Penny James; Press, Media and Communications Consultant for this campaign, that the Brynawel short was sent along with her pitch to cover the story for Welsh charities week and Dan, Sue and Brynawel were selected to be featured in a news piece for ITV Wales which aired that week. We are so pleased they have been able to raise their profile and share what amazing work they do at Brynawel.

“ I just wanted to say thank you for everything you've done. It was great meeting the two of you. I also wanted to share that I won at the Barod Awards for a Positive Influencer for the work that I do in DDAS Pembrokeshire and I was also invited to 10 downing Street. I had a great chat with Katherine Jenkins about DDAS and talked about my peer mentoring with Wayne Edwards. I also shook hands with Alun-Wyn Jones's, had a photograph with Amy Dowden and met Fiona Hughes and Rachel Duffy the eventual winner of season 4 the Traitors!

Once again THANK YOU

 Love and Regards Dan and Paula xx"
