Answered by Deputy Minister for Arts, Sport and Tourism | Answered on 22/02/2024
Officials in Cadw meet regularly meet representatives of different faith communities to discuss strategic issues as well as specific conservation and repair projects. Cadw is also a member of the places of worship forum which has just been re-established. The forum brings representatives from across the places of worship sector together with other stakeholders to discuss challenges and encourage support. Several well-attended meetings of forum members have been held recently and a programme of regular meetings is envisaged for the months ahead.
