Community & cultural development

Healthy communities thrive when its members have opportunities to learn and develop skills, and there is a space to meet, contribute ideas, discover their creativity and envision their future.

Overview

ProMo-Cymru puts people and communities at the heart of all its services, whether creating an online platform and editorial training for young people to express their views, upskilling professionals in the use of social media to transform their service delivery, or taking over and developing a building to create a cultural space in the community. We have the experience, resources and drive to help you make a positive impact.
