Happy St David’s Day and Happy Birthday to Care Forum Wales too

On behalf of the Chairman, Vice Chair, Council members and Officers of Care Forum Wales, we would like to wish all our members a happy St. David’s Day and recognise that it is 24 years since Care Forum Wales was founded.

As we enter our 25th year, we recognise we have a come along way – we began before devolution – but we have also never faced greater challenges. The sector is under enormous pressure to deliver the highest quality of care and expectations have, quite rightly, increased over the last 24 years.

But fees do not match those expectations. We need to be able to recruit and retain the talent we need to run our services in order to provide the people of Wales with the services they deserve.
