Doin it for the Kids!


Earlier this month we were invited to produce the four year strategy plan for the Cardiff and Childrens Young Persons Partnership. We wanted to convey the energy and vitality of the young people of the capital creating a vibrant illustrative style for use within the design of the reports.

The pack inlcuded 2 x 92page reports, 1 x 122p plan, 1 x 132 plan and 2 x young persons guides aimed directly at users of the initiative.

The pack was produced bilingually, and will be distributed throughout November.
