Pathways launches August 2026 — register your interest for the first cohort.
Creativity, connected to tech.
A creative tech hub for 16–25s in Cardiff — turning what you already make into a clearer next move.
Why we created Pathways
Too many young people are creative, curious and full of ideas — but have no guidance, no networks and no clear route forward. Pathways exists to close that gap.
How we do itOur approach
Four principles behind every session.
Not a classroom — every session runs on the same four principles.
✦See the programmeKeep it practical
Real examples, useful tools and clear actions you can take straight away.
Learn together
Share ideas, ask questions and learn from each other in a relaxed room.
Continue the support
Guidance, check-ins and progression support after the six core sessions.
What Pathways is not
Not a coding
bootcamp.
01
We're not trying to turn every creative into a coder — you don't need to write a line of code to belong here.
02
Technology is far wider than code. It's in how you create, communicate, market, organise and build.
03
Pathways helps you find where you fit in that wider world — and turn it into your niche.
What makes Pathways different
A different kind of room.
- ✓Relaxed, collaborative sessions
- ✓No traditional classroom
- ✓Learning tied to your real interests
- ✓Experienced facilitators and mentors
- ✓Support beyond one-off workshops
- ✓Room to contribute and lead
- ✓Your journey documented properly
