An opportunity to collaborate and develop skills with the S4C Ffermio team

A special Memorial Prize has been launched at the Royal Welsh Show by S4C and the Royal Welsh Agricultural Society dedicated to the memory of the well-known farmer and presenter, Dai Jones Llanilar.

The Dai Jones Llanilar Memorial Prize will give one young person the opportunity to work with multimedia production companies Telesgop (Ffermio) and Slam (Cefn Gwlad/Y Sioe) to develop an original idea into a fully formed item, which will then broadcast on S4C’s platforms.

To compete for the Prize, individuals under the age of 30 must submit an idea relating to the countryside or agriculture to Telesgop before the 1st October. Individuals will also be asked to write a few words about themselves and why they think they should be awarded the prize.

A shortlist of applicants will then be invited to present their ideas to a panel of representatives from the Royal Welsh Agricultural Society, the Young Farmers, the Ffermio and Cefn Gwlad programme teams and S4C.

The winner will be announced at this year’s Winter Fair in Llanelwedd – 24th and 25th November.

For a chance to win the prize, submit an application no longer than one A4 page outlining your idea for an item related to the countryside and agriculture. Email your submission to: gwawr.lewis@telesgop.cymru by 11:59pm on 1 October 2025.
