Radio Platfform is our training programme and youth-led radio station supporting young people to produce and present their own live radio shows and podcasts.
We currently have two studios based in Cardiff and Porth.
Our current shows feature drum and bass, hip-hop, dub and grime, gaming, youth culture, politics, the environment, artist interviews and more.
There are now lots of ways for you to listen, from your smart speaker 'Alexa, listen to Radio Platfform' to Google Home. You can also find us on mobile, desktop and tablet and can listen again to any of our shows on Mixcloud.
Meet some of the team
Having graduated from training, some trainees choose to stay and work with us, taking on extra roles and responsibilities for 6-12 months, while others simply wish to continue presenting their own shows and honing their skills.

Zu has been involved in Radio Platfform since 2020 when she took part in one of our online training courses. Since then she has become a core part of the team and is now the Porth Studio Coordinator. Working with young people has become Zu’s passion and she loves being able to work alongside the teams from Sparc and Valleys Kids at The Factory in Porth.
Zu came to live in Wales in 2018 to study for a degree in Music Business and fell in love with the country. She recently completed a master’s degree in PR and is now ready to fully immerse herself in work with young people and radio. In her spare time, Zu loves to dance Swing, play the guitar and read. She also loves to introduce people to her love of Czech Music through her podcasts, featured on Radio Platfform. Give Zu’s Czech Customs podcast a listen on Radio Platfform’s Mixcloud.
She wishes to create an environment where young people can come and learn and do what they are passionate about in Radio Platfform.

Her favourite radio presenters are Scott Mills, Katie Thistleton, and Nat O’Leary.

Dylan Clarke – Outreach and Training Officer
Dylan is our Outreach and Training Officer here at Radio Platfform. He is experienced in working at and contributing to youth radio stations – whilst at Burn FM, he hosted weekly live shows for three years, produced multiple podcasts, and worked as Head of Podcasting and then Station Manager. He has experience working with BBC Radio Wales as part of a university placement, and is even writing a dissertation about BBC Sounds and the growth of podcasting in the UK.

Outside of radio, Rhys is involved with environmental charities and his goal for this year is to make Radio Platfform Wales’ greenest radio station and create podcasts that help connect people with the natural world. He’s also a big football and Welsh music fan and a Welsh speaker.
Rhys has adopted the sofa in Radio Platfform as his desk, so he’s often around if you ever decide to pop into the station for a recording or even a friendly chat in English or Welsh. Diolch!
Zoom Masterclasses

Throughout the year we organise masterclasses with radio gurus, past and present, learning what it takes to be successful in radio. Guests have included former Radio 1 Newsbeat Editor Rod McKenzie, Polly James from Capital Radio.
Live events

We love producing shows in the studio but we also get out and about, meeting and interviewing musicians and artists at gigs and festivals too such as Boomtown, Follyfest and Festival of Voice - all of which are produced as podcasts on our Mixcloud page.
