Our gratitude goes towards the main connections of The Royal Commonwealth Society of Wales for their valuable support and commitments. These range from established businesses and organisations to influential and dedicated public peers, well known in the Welsh community.

The Commonwealth
The Commonwealth, often described as a ‘family’ of nations is home to two and a half billion people. This is one-third of the world’s population and includes both advanced economies and developing countries.
Welsh Organisations
A handful of Welsh organisations have agreed to lend their helping hands in order for RCS Wales to meet it’s objectives and raise awareness of the Commonwealth year after year. We would like to thank them and show appreciation for their continuous support for RCS Wales.
