We recently attended the launch of The Link Up organised by WheelWorks which brings together young people from Armagh and Monaghan to produce podcasts using their own voices and experiences. The podcasts will be launched in June/July next year.

It was great to see all the young people collaborating and learning about podcasting, writing, sound effects and music mixing as they start their creative journey together.
