Chloe Thomas - Evans - Journalist

It’s good to be back & writing again. It’s like a breath of fresh air. Actually, do you know what else is like a breath of fresh air? READING 📖!!!! Yep, you heard me. We’re all sick & tired of the same old social media story so maybe a good old-fashioned fictional one will do the trick.

For my final Alt.Cardiff story, I spoke to an author and storyteller with a life straight out of a novel! Adam Holton has travelled Europe selling his books out of a suitcase but has now decided to call Cardiff home for a few months. You can find him in stall 30 of Cardiff market writing stories and hiring his typewriters for public use. Why not pop by his stall this Christmas and try out his new typewriter-for-hire service? To find out more about this service you can read my article on the Alt.Cardiff website!

I got to practice my social media skills while attending a live reporting task last week. Here’s some graphics I made while watching Wales’ pathway to net zero breakfast briefing at Cardiff business school:

Check out the article and podcast I co-created with and Magda on Alt.Cardiff now!

We spoke to Harry Thorp from plant + pot about running a business in the current economic climate. :)💚🌿

The rare and historic ‘Gabalfa,’ trees that were once linked to the Bute Family are being reintroduced to several locations in Cardiff! Read my story on the Alt.Cardiff website to learn the history of these trees and what you can make with their “dessert apples.” 🍏 🌲🌳

It was a pleasure to interview who is an inspirational 22-year-old women’s health activist with an inoperable brain tumour. She is truly one of the most incredible people you could ever meet & a human embodiment of courage. Read my latest article to see what she says about the women’s activism space and facilitating safer spaces for some individuals to speak in! 👀🩷

Last week I attended the pathway to net zero briefing for Wales and completed a live reporting task with a team of Alt.Cardiff journalists. During the intense and hectic day, we all pulled together and gathered interviews, voxpops, photography, and social media content. We also published an article on the Alt.Cardiff website. 💚🌎💙
