About Us

Children in Wales campaigns for and facilitates full implementation of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child in Wales. We listen to, coordinate and amplify the voices of children and young people.

As the national umbrella body for people and organisations who care for or about children and young people, we are a unique hub for Wales, building networks, capacity and platforms for the collective expertise of our members. We support and encourage government and child-facing organisations to deliver policy, practice and equitable services that reflect the rights, needs and aspirations of babies, children and young people.

Our Vision

Building a Wales where all babies, children and young people have all their rights fulfilled.
