The 2026 Senedd election will be one of the most hotly contested and unpredictable elections since devolution began. The expansion of the Senedd, coupled with a new electoral system, and unprecedented political shifts suggest a big change in the make-up of the next Senedd.

​This event will bring together representatives from different political parties and give you an opportunity to ask questions about their party’s policies concerning the voluntary sector.

WCVA has invited representatives from Plaid Cymru, Reform UK, the Wales Green Party, the Welsh Conservative Party, Welsh Labour, and the Welsh Liberal Democrats.

​This event aims to ensure that the most common questions asked by charities, community groups and voluntary organisations are answered ahead of the Senedd election. Please submit your questions to policy@wcva.cymru before 09 March 2026.
