Bursary Description


S4C has launched two journalism bursaries to attract new talent.

The Welsh broadcaster has announced a sports journalism bursary and the annual T. Glynne Davies journalism scholarship.

They hope the bursaries will appeal to people with minority ethnic heritage, disabilities, or from disadvantaged socio-economic backgrounds.

The journalism scholarship is also open to anyone who is the first to speak Welsh fluently within their family.

The S4C sports media bursary offers a place on Cardiff Metropolitan University’s MSc sports broadcasting course.

The T. Glynne Davies journalism scholarship offers a place on the MA JOMEC broadcast journalism course at Cardiff University and S4C, BBC and ITV work experience.

Llion Iwan, S4C’s chief content officer, said: “S4C is helping people from all backgrounds in Wales to develop the necessary skills to become part of our workforce.

“We encourage anyone with a desire to work in the broadcasting industry to apply for these great opportunities.”

The deadline to apply for both scholarships is Monday, June 2, 2025.
