It's the biggest female sports initiative in Wales. It's having a huge impact. And it all happens right here in the Rhondda, where it began...

'Where do you come from?' It's something Rhondda people often ask. It’s not until we go away from home, or meet people from elsewhere, that we begin to realise that not everyone approaches the question in the same way.

Did you know that there's a place on Mars named after a town in the Rhondda? There is. Honest, now! And it's quite some town...

A Saturday afternoon stroll through Penygraig, where the past hangs heavy in the air... but the future beckons too.

A new book about one of the heroes of 'the Mid' - the Mid-Rhondda Athletic Ground -  'Jimmy Seed: Rhondda's Adopted Son' by Phil Rowlands, makes us think about second chances, outsiders... and our aspirations for the place we live in.
