Chwarel was founded in 2001 by renowned director, producer and entrepreneur Sioned Wyn.
Chwarel is a thriving and rapidly growing business with a strong pipeline of returning series and exciting new formats in development with both Welsh and UK broadcasters. This success is already being backed by funding from the BBC’s Small Indie Fund scheme to help build our development slate and further accelerate the company’s growth.

In 2022 we won BAFTA, RTS and Broadcast Awards for our C4 Daytime format “Great House Giveaway”. We also broke through making films for BBC1’s “One Show” and launched the Welsh language version of “Gogglebox” on S4C.
