A vision for culture and sport - complete here

Children in Wales is inviting our members to inform our response to the Welsh Government’s Call for Evidence to support the development of a new Culture and Sports Strategy for Wales.

We know that access to culture or sport delivers many benefits and improves health, social, educational and early developmental outcomes, yet many babies, children and young people continue to face barriers and challenges which prevents their participation. 

Article 31 of the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC) provides that all children have a right to play and recreation, and join in a wide range of activities, such as sports, arts and cultural opportunities. Governments are required to promote this right and provide appropriate opportunities for their participation. 

We invite our members to tell us how access to culture or sport in Wales can be improved, and what steps the Welsh Government need to take to help children engage and take part and have an equal chance to connect, learn, develop, enjoy and get involved. 

You do not need to answer all six questions, only those where you have something to tell us.  This survey will close on Thursday 10th December 2026. 

You can access more information about the consultation from the Welsh Government website here - A vision for culture and sport in Wales: call for evidence | GOV.WALES. If you wish to respond separately as a child, young person, parent or family member, you can do so via the same link above.
