Project
We're planning an epic 21 day project to showcase & celebrate outdoor, active, adventure & wellbeing experiences & their hosts across Wales and to enable front line & NHS Wales staff to come and enjoy those experiences at no cost to themselves.
We'll be visiting 42 experiences which is 2 per day and at each one we'll be interviewing the hosts, the front line & NHS Wales staff enjoying the experience (before, during and after) to get their reactions and filming the experience in 4k, 360 and aerial footage.
We are aiming to raise a minimum of £5k which will allow us to fund the project costs (filming, editing, travel, overheads, admin & marketing/PR) and enable a minimum of 84 front line & NHS Wales staff to come and enjoy the experiences. All funds raised over that minimum will go directly to enabling more front line & NHS Wales staff to come and enjoy experiences across Wales during this Summer & Autumn and capturing additional drone and 360 video footage of the experiences.
Deliverables
We are going to deliver the following during the project:
1) Enable a minimum of 84 front line & NHS Wales staff to come and enjoy the experiences over the course of the 21 days.
2) Live daily coverage of the trip broadcast on YouTube, Facebook & Instagram with videos & photos of each of our experience visits.
3) Social media awareness, national & local PR awareness and exposure for the project and each of our experience hosts.
4) Digital postcards sent to all our backers twice a day.
5) Photos & video footage (in 360, 4k & aerial format) of each of the experiences and the stunning locations across Wales.
6) Promotional videos for each of the experience hosts featuring interviews with the front line & NHS Wales staff who enjoyed the experience for the first time.
7) The exclusive Experience Wales Live photobook with over 50 pages of stunning photos, quotes and stories.

Risks and challenges
The biggest risk to this project is the weather in Wales! We hope we will be blessed but have planned the itinerary so that we can move experiences around to accommodate for changes in the weather that would affect the ability to do the experiences and film them.
