The latest Welsh Association of Visitor Attractions (WAVA) survey indicated the true depth of concern regarding the future for attractions in Wales. WAVA attractions employ approximately 5000 people, and the 100 plus membership covers all types of attractions throughout Wales.
The main findings WAVA’s survey included less investment forecast, lower staffing levels, stagnation in turnover, less visitors expected, low morale, and increased mental health issues.
Last year attractions reported that they still had not recovered the attendance figures that they were getting pre-Covid, and 60% saw less visitors last summer compared to summer 2023.
