Griffiths won the Drama Medal at the National Urdd Gobaith Cymru Eisteddfod for the first time at the Preseli Eisteddfod in 1995 for a short play entitled O Gysgod y Cyll (From the Shadows) . He repeated his success in 1996 at the Bro Maelor Eisteddfod in Wrexham with another short play called B’echdan? (Sandwich?) later adapted and televised on the S4C Digital as B'echdan Wŷ? (Egg Sandwich?). In 1997 he won again at the Islwyn Eisteddfod in Crosskeys with the play Ai am fod haul yn Machlud? (Is it because the sun is setting?) which was also later adapted and televised on S4C Digital under the new name of Traeth Coch (Red Beach) starring Mali Harries. In 2000, at the Bro Conwy Eisteddfod held in Llandudno he was invited to adjudicate the competition and at the 2008 Eisteddfod, again held in Llandudno presented the Ceremony live on S4C.

Famous quotes containing the word national:
“Children’s lives are not shaped solely by their families or immediate surroundings at large. That is why we must avoid the false dichotomy that says only government or only family is responsible. . . . Personal values and national policies must both play a role.”
—Hillary Rodham Clinton (20th century)
