Travelling Ahead organises two Regional Forums each year in South Wales, West Wales and North Wales. Once a year we organise a National Forum where all the groups can meet together. We plan these events with young people to provide workshops on issues which you choose and do some fun activities as well. Invited to these events are decision makers from the Welsh Government and Local Authorities so that they can listen to the views and experiences of the young people. The Children’s Commissioner for Wales and Young Wales are also invited to learn more about issues which are important to young people from the Gypsy, Roma and Traveller communities.
