Track The Act, Carers Wales monitoring and evaluation of the Social Services and Well-being (Wales) Act 2014 on carers rights, has returned after a three-year, pandemic-related hiatus.
If you are an unpaid carer in Wales, Track the Act is your chance to tell us how your rights are working for you and how this affects your life. If you are a carer, please complete the survey or share across your networks.

If you support adults to learn or develop in any way, this is for you. It does not imply a certification or qualification process or formal setting.
Taith is an international learning exchange programme established to create life-changing opportunities for people in Wales to learn, study and volunteer all over the world. It is for people in every part of Wales, and in every type of education setting.
The programme is Welsh Government funded and provides funding for projects ranging in length from a number of days to up to a year.
Taith are currently encouraging organisations who support disadvantaged or diverse communities to apply.
Diverse Cymru were lucky enough to be successful under the scheme to take a number of staff, volunteers and adult learners to Crete last summer, click here to see the short information video of the trip and its outcomes.
Pathway 1 – Mobility of participants
This supports the physical, virtual and blended outward and inward mobility of individuals or groups of individuals, providing opportunities for flexible short and long-term mobilities to learn, work or volunteer abroad.
The programme is open to organisations and groups in Wales that work with adults. These organisations can apply for funding to enable disadvantaged people in Wales to study, train, volunteer, and work worldwide. They can also invite international partners to do the same here in Wales.
Diverse Cymru, as the Taith Champion for Adult Education, offers support to organisations who support disadvantaged communities, to apply for the Taith programme, including raising awareness, providing advice and guidance, project development support, logistical support, and ongoing support throughout the implementation of the project.
