Create, record and share your own mini podcast! Build confidence, creativity and teamwork. A workshop for girls and non-binary folk age 10+
About this Event

What is it?

Digital Skills 4 Girls is a monthly workshop for girls and non-binary young people aged 10 - 17 who want to learn new digital skills or develop existing skills. From coding and gaming to digital design and video, DS4G is a friendly and supportive environment to learn new skills and meet new friends.



What will I learn?

In this fun, hands-on workshop, participants will work in small teams to create their own mini podcast episode from start to finish. Together, they’ll brainstorm show ideas, develop interview questions, rehearse and record segments, and learn simple editing techniques using beginner-friendly tools. Along the way, they’ll build confidence in public speaking, communication, storytelling, and teamwork while sparking creativity and digital skills in a supportive environment.

Host bio:Kathryn Strachan

Kathryn is an award-winning entrepreneur, strategic advisor, and author who started her business from her kitchen table and grew it into a 32-person international agency working with companies all over the world. After successfully selling her business in 2024, she now helps other founders (and future founders!) build their own paths. She’s a regular speaker at global conferences, a mentor to young women in tech and business and mum to an 8-year-old who also loves big ideas.

Kathryn believes that everyone has the potential to create something meaningful no matter their age and she’s passionate about helping girls and non-binary young people dream big and start building.

This session runs at the same time as Prewired, a coding club for under 19s.
