Frontline Network Wales
The Frontline Network Wales is delivered by Cymorth Cymru in partnership with the Frontline Network. It aims to give frontline homelessness and housing support workers in Wales the opportunity to share their views and experiences, make their voices heard and influence policy and practice.
Established in late 2020, the Network held an online launch event, which gave frontline workers the opportunity to ask questions of the Minister for Housing and Local Government. Following this event, which was attended by nearly 200 people, we have held regular online meet-ups for frontline staff in Wales, where we have discussed staff health and wellbeing during COVID-19, the transition post-COVID and what frontline staff want from their newly elected Members of the Senedd. Following each round of regional meet-ups, we capture participants' views in a report, with recommendations for government, commissioners and service providers. See below for our latest reports.

About the Frontline Network
The Frontline Network aims to build relationships, share best practice, develop solutions, and communicate the experience and views of frontline staff working with people experiencing homelessness. Since 2016, the Frontline Network has been working with partner organisations across the UK to provide opportunities for frontline workers to regularly come together in their areas, to network, share experiences and expertise. These partnerships also explore solutions to key issues affecting staff and the people they support, and create important links between the frontline voice and decision-makers.
