Visits 2017 18.6 million visits were made to attractions in Wales taking part in the 2017 survey: 61% of these visits were made to attractions with free admission and 39% to attractions where an admission change applies. As most major attractions participate in the survey, it is estimated the total volume of visits recorded accounts for well over 80% of the grand total of visits to all attractions in Wales. Amongst all attractions responding to the survey, the 23 reporting 200,000 or more visitors accounted for almost half of all visits recorded in 2017. Participating attractions in North Wales received the highest share of visits in 2017 (39.5%), while attractions in Mid Wales received the lowest (5.5%). Each attraction responding to the survey received an average of 78,620 visits in 2017: the average number of visits was highest (at 105,177) in South East Wales, and lowest (at 22,964) in Mid Wales. Historic properties and museums and art galleries received the highest proportion of visits overall (with each accounting for around 20% of all visits). Almost four in ten visits to attractions in Wales in 2017 (39.7%) were made to privately owned attractions (3.8 million to free and 3.6 million to paid). ii. Visits 2016 - 2017 This section of the report looks at trends in the number of visits to attractions in Wales, comparing 2016 and 2017 figures. Please note that this section only relates to those attractions that provided data in both years (143 attractions). Visits to these attractions rose by 7.1% from 2016 to 2017. Free attractions saw the largest increase in visit numbers year on year, with a rise of 9.8% (8.08 million to 8.87 million), while visits to paid attractions rose by 3.6% (6.05 million to 6.26 million). Visitor numbers increased at attractions in all areas of Wales except the South West, where there was a small decrease of 2.3% from 2016 to 2017; North Wales saw the highest increase year on year (of 14%). 3 | Visit Wales – Visits to Tourist Attractions in Wales 2017 Beaufort Research 2018 Research Report Visits to privately owned attractions increased by 13.7% from 2016 to 2017, while Amgueddfa Cymru – National Museum Wales, Cadw, Local Authority and RSPB attractions also saw sizeable increases. In contrast, visits to Natural Resources Wales sites declined by 10.7% year on year. Average adult admission charges rose by just over 4% from 2016 to 2017 to £9.03 (up from £8.65 in 2016); child admission prices also rose by a similar margin (from £5.13 in 2016 to £5.35 in 2017). Adult admission charges were highest in North Wales (average £9.70), and lowest in South West Wales (average £6.45). In terms of attraction category, adventure / activity attractions charged the highest adult admission prices (average £18.40), while museums and art galleries charges were lowest (average of £4.53). iii. Operations Nearly half of participating attractions (47%) reported an increase in gross revenue in 2017 compared with 2016, while another four in ten said their revenue was similar; only around one in eight reported their gross revenue had fallen year on year (down from one in five in 2016). Overall, participating attractions reported an increase of 3.1% in gross revenue in 2017 compared with 2016. Country parks and gardens saw the highest increase (+11.7%), followed by wildlife / nature reserves (+9.1%), science / technology centres (+8%) and food or drink attractions (+7.5%). Turning to staffing, as in 2016 unpaid volunteers accounted for the largest proportion of workers at attractions participating in the 2017 survey (63%). Full-time staff accounted for just over one in five (20.7%) workers in

    Happy Museum (HM) stimulates and supports museum practice that places wellbeing within an environmental and future-facing frame, rethinking museums’ role in creating more resilient people, places and planet. Through academic research, thought leadership, peer networking, advocacy, training and action, HM works directly with over 70 UK museums and impacted many more through events and an online presence which stretches globally. The Community of Practice’s vision for HM is of: A space to experiment with museum practice, through principles of care, inclusion and collaboration, in a critical time of change.

Created a suite of case studies, evaluation tools and resources for use by the wider sector with a re- launched website (happymuseum.org) to guide practitioners in How to Be a HM. In 2015 brought together 6 museumsii in an in-depth 5-year study into the impact of action research and peer learning on individual, organisational and community resilience. In 2017-8, recruited 17 Affiliateiii organisations to form an expanded Community of Practice, engaging c 200 participants from museum teams, volunteers, partners and communities with the HM principles, developing new practice and sharing learning through facilitated workshops and pairings.

  • An Unintended Community in the Welsh Hinterland
    AN UNINTENDED COMMUNITY IN THE WELSH HINTERLAND Networks, Lifestyles, Relationships David Frost 2 An Unintended Community in the Welsh Hinterland - Networks, Lifestyles, Relationships Starting in the late 1970s, not long after I joined the urban exodus that saw significant inward migration to rural Wales, I kept a file of notes and observations on the situation and experiences of those around me who had moved to West Wales. Thirty years on, at the turn of the millennium, I made a summary and in this paper I discuss the main social trends that I identified at the time, adding additional and more recent material. Migration and social networks My earliest observation was that the migrants had come from many different, overwhelmingly urban, places and I pondered the reasons why they had moved to Wales; and whether, having assembled themselves in the hinterlands of Machynlleth, Aberystwyth, Tregaron, Aberaeron and Cardigan, they had become a community, albeit a loose-knit and spatially dispersed one. One reason for their migration seemed to be the persistence of the rural idyll, a romantic yearning for an idealised countryside, which I examined in my article for the Organic Grower Magazine, “Mud on the Tracks” (2016). Part of the rural idyll is the notion of community, and many writers have contrasted the community life of rural society with the supposedly atomised life of urban society. My search of the literature on rural communities led me to the conclusion however, that our 1970s migration to West Wales was a variant of what sociologists call intentional communities, which are also known as utopian communities.
