Last week, the RCYC (Radio Cardiff Young Carers) got the opportunity to visit the BBC Wales studios in Llandaff to have a chat with Roy Noble on his radio show.
Roy Noble, a Welsh native, began his career in the teaching sector later moving into broadcasting full-time. He has travelled the world as a speaker and is the ambassador for The United Nations International Youth Movement. In 2001 he was rewarded for his charitable work by receiving an OBE from the Queen. A far cry from his humble beginnings as the only son of a coal miner who shared his home with at least four other family members in the welsh valleys of Brynamman.
Roy initially had aspirations to join the RAF to become a Pilot but was turned down due to his hay fever allergy.
Today Roy is a regular friendly voice heard on BBC Radio Wales and the RCYC were at ease whilst being interviewed on the show. We discussed the difficulties young carers face on a day to day basis, and would like to thank BBC Radio Wales, Roy Noble, Alison Quinn, Charlotte Evans and the rest of the team for giving us the opportunity to raise awareness of our roles and show.
