As we all know, strength comes when we work together.
And that is why we’ve tried to create a hub where you can find, and share, information about events and groups that are going on in Wales.
If you would like to share information about a group or event, please get in touch!
As well as working with the community to develop Cyd, we also want to work in the open and share our progress with you. This is an opportunity for you to learn more about Cyd.

Our priority is to create a service that will be in line with what the community needs and wants. That is why we have a group of users from the commercial and procurement community in Wales who guide us as we develop our services.
