Wales Wide Training Programme

We are pleased to share this short film from a WWTP CPD day which focused on "Visual Impairment and Creative Work" which was led by Karina Jones and Dr Kate Lawrence.

The CPD day was filmed at Rubicon in December 2025 but "Visual Impairment and Creative Work" also took place at Conwy Culture Centre in North Wales in July 2024.

Special thanks to Karina Jones and Dr Kate Lawrence for leading both CPD days, to Hide Productions for the film and to the practitioners that you see in the film.

Enjoy the videos and music you love, upload original content, and share it all with friends, family, and the world on YouTube.

YOU AND YOUR PROJECT DESERVE A GOOD EVALUATION.

And thankfully, we have Susanne!

We’re delighted that she’s once again making space for WWTP to offer these sessions, and we’re thrilled to be able to open up bookings for September.

Susanne’s wealth of experience, knowledge, reputation and genuine love for the work and knack for asking the right questions make these sessions a pretty lethal combination!

The sessions are completely tailored to what you and your project need, whether you need a push to get started, a sounding board, help making sense of what you’ve gathered, especially you’re just starting out and want to meaningfully thread in evaluation from the very beginning, building in questions, approaches and ways of capturing learning and impact as your project develops. Susanne can help you make your evaluation work for your project.
