YouthTV creates bold, youth-led content across news, entertainment, sport, wellbeing, podcasts and digital series.

Established in 2020, it has fast become one of the UK's leading youth-led media production companies, with content shaped by young people's own voices and career pathways that let them build skills in front of and behind the camera.

That is a lot of moving parts for one website. The site needed to work like a broadcaster: a content hub spanning four strands, a podcast library, campaign moments like the Aspire Awards, partner showcases and clear routes in for young creators, supporters and sponsors. And because the team publishes constantly, every part of it had to be simple enough to update daily without a developer.

/ THE BUILD

What we did

  • 01 Content hub

    Built like a channel, not a brochure

    The homepage works as a broadcast front door: a featured story, a live news ticker, the four-strand content hub for News, Entertainment, Sport and Lifestyle, campaign spotlights and the latest stories, all pulling from collections the team updates themselves.

  • 02 Podcasts

    A home for the podcasts

    YouthTV's shows, including The Conversation Cabinet, the UK's number one Gen-Z politics and current affairs podcast, each get their own space with artwork, blurb and direct links to watch or listen.

  • 03 Safeguarding

    Trust built in

    Safeguarding sits front and centre, with policies and the trust and safety pages one click from every footer. For an organisation working with young people, that is not small print; it is the brand.

  • 04 Easy editing

    Simple to run at speed

    Native Squarespace blocks and collections throughout, so a young team can publish news, stories and campaign pages daily.
