Last week our core staff had the pleasure of attending the conference for the Third Sector in Cardiff. The event is a celebration of all things in the community and voluntary sector and was a chance for networking, learning and sharing good practice.
The opening speech from Deputy First Minister Sioned Williams set out Plaid Cymru's ambition for the sector, placing it at the heart of the new Government's Agenda, which will recognise us as an equal and trusted patner in creating thriving communities and tackling the preventative agenda.
Staff attended sessions on using AI in Leadership, Budgeting for Preventative Spend, Welsh in the Third Sector and Do Engagement Well: Tools for real impact.
One clear message from the day highlighted the invaluable role of the sector in our every day lives! Take a look at Voluntary Action Merthyr Tydfil's video 'Because we weren't there' here:
