Yellow Jigsaw partner with One Manchester to offer unique media workshops in the city
Our Media Cubs team transformed Beswick Library into a TV studio and newsroom for ages 7-11, inviting budding reporters to try their hand at filming, directing and presenting – encouraging new skills and confidence amongst young people.
Meanwhile, our Talking About My Generation project was able to deliver a free community reporter workshop for aspiring journalists aged 50 and over living in Greater Manchester.
Kirsty Day, Media Director for Yellow Jigsaw and project lead for Media Cubs and MyGen, said: “These taster sessions were able to inspire and empower those who joined us to grow in confidence and ability and that we now have a few new reporters onboard with our mission to help challenge and overcome stereotypes on who should be having their say in the media. Big thank you to One Manchester for partnering with us.”
