Thank you to all who responded to the previous consultation in relation to the proposals associated with youth workers and youth support workers.  Your continued engagement in this work is much appreciated and we will continue to engage with a range of stakeholders on these proposed changes. Any queries on the proposed changes to registration of youth workers and youth support workers should be directed to youthwork@gov.wales

The consultation closes on 17 February 2023.
