AMPLIFY — Young Voices Wales

A Creative Media & Podcast Development Programme by KLAT Magazine

KLAT Magazine is a storytelling and creative culture platform dedicated to highlighting the achievements of young visionaries across Wales and beyond. Through interviews, digital storytelling, creative documentation, and community-centred programming, KLAT creates opportunities for emerging creatives to grow, collaborate, and be seen.

We are proud to introduce AMPLIFY – Young Voices Wales, a fully funded, year-long creative media and podcast development programme designed for young people aged 16–24 living in Wales. AMPLIFY provides hands-on training, creative support, and real experience inside KLAT’s creative workspace, empowering young people with the tools, confidence, and environment they need to elevate their voice and expand their creative journey.

AMPLIFY centres young people from underrepresented or underserved communities, ensuring access to equipment, workshops, mentorship, and opportunities in podcasting, digital media, production, and content creation.

At KLAT, we believe that Community Builds Culture — and AMPLIFY is a pathway for young people to take their place within the creative industries of Wales.

Who We’re Looking For

We are seeking enthusiastic, creative, and driven young people with an interest in media, storytelling, content creation, and collaborative work. You do not need any previous experience — just passion, interest, and a willingness to learn.

AMPLIFY participants will choose at least one Creative Pathway, helping us understand their goals, interests, and where they wish to grow.

Below is a full breakdown of the creative pathways available:
