Tom Morgan– Platinum Ambassador Hi guys firstly welcome to the social media work shop. I have been a Young Ambassador since year 10, within 2 years I have been a Silver, Gold and recently I have been appointed to a Platinum. The experiences I’ve already been apart of is massive, ranging from coaching, volunteering at the Tour of Britain, Q&A session with Jason Gardener at NIAC, to then going on to be a member of my local authority’s Community Chest Panel, I am a member on the Welsh National Steering Group and also the South East Steering Group where our main focus is to strive to our newest goal, the Common Wealth Games, but most importantly improving the Young Ambassador programme for the future to come. Cian Richards – Platinum Ambassador Catrin Norton – Platinum Ambassador Qwiki is an app what allows you to make a 30 second video clip by either importing or taking pictures, then by adding your own music to the backing theme. The best video from each group will go into the final at the closing of the conference….so get creative! Here is ours for a bit of an idea of what to make.
