Keeping Wales well through lifelong sport and physical activity

Improved access, participation and enjoyment of sport at all levels in communities across Wales will be an integral part of our approach to keeping people well, and aligns with our belief that we must progressively invest in public and preventative health, with sport and exercise as a key driver of this.

A Plaid Cymru government will:

  • Increase funding for culture and sport year-on-year throughout the next Senedd term.
  • Promote physical and mental health and well-being across all Welsh Government activity and as a key area of work for a Plaid Cymru Minister for Public Health.
  • Invest in sport and physical activity as part of the preventative health agenda and promote new partnership working between health boards, primary care services and sports organisations, including national governing bodies.
  • Conduct an audit of community and regional sporting facilities to better understand how to target capital investment over the government term, to provide the best possible support to grassroots and community sport.
