About Us
Children in Wales is the national umbrella body for organisations and individuals who work with babies, children, young people and their families in Wales. We work closely with Welsh Government and others in Wales to ensure that children's rights are at the forefront of policy and decision making. To do this we focus on ensuring that babies, children and young people in Wales have a voice, we fight for sustainable and equitable services, advocate for policy changes in Wales and connect and represent the work being undertaken by our membership.
Our membership includes individuals and organisations from the voluntary, statutory and professional sectors. We also work directly with children and young people on a number of projects and have recently started a dedicated membership for our younger audience.
Our Vision
Building a Wales where all babies, children and young people have all their rights fulfilled.
Our Values
Our values, co-developed with colleagues and young people, inform how we behave and give us a framework for decision-making.
