About Aled
Aled presents a daily breakfast programme on BBC Radio Cymru – a mixture of Welsh music and lively discussions.
He’s recently taken on many challenges – showing a pig in the Royal Welsh Show, retaking his driving test (which he failed) and now picking up a cornet for the first time since he was 11 years old.
