Media Matching
Our free Media Matching service is open to all third sector organisations and anyone from the media and communications industry in Wales. Media Matching brings together media professionals as volunteers with voluntary organisations looking to improve their communications.
If you're a media or communications professional with two or more years experience in related fields (including PR and marketing, design, branding, TV, film or radio production, digital media, internal communications or journalism) or if you're a charity that needs support getting your voice heard and raising your profile, get involved with Media Matching.
In addition to our online matching service, we also run face to face networking events - Speedmatching. Find out more about these Speedmatching events.
We are particularly keen to encourage more Welsh speakers to get involved with Media Matching.
To find out more or register for the service, visit the Media Matching pages, or contact our Media Matching Manager for Wales for further information: Danny Solle.
The Media Matching project in Wales is kindly supported by the Chartered Institute of Marketing Charitable Trust.

Media Trust Cymru proposal and feasibility study
Media Trust Cymru recently undertook a feasibility study investigating volunteering opportunities for young people through media projects in their community. The study explores the development of an initiative to inspire media, communications and creative companies to host and support volunteer placements for young people from the voluntary and community sector (VCS).
This study was made possible thanks to the Active Community Russell Commision enhanced fund, in partnership with Wales Council for Voluntary Action (WCVA).
