Charities and community groups in Wales want funders to prioritise core funding and longer-term partnerships.

That’s the strong, clear message that came out of Community Foundation Wales’s big conversation with the sector.

The Community Foundation Wales team met and spoke with more than 100 community groups and charities across Wales to discover what really matters to them and how they think we could best support them and the findings were published in our Loud and Clear report.

Below you can hear from the some of the groups themselves about what they need to continue helping communities across Wales:
