Focus on Wales: Its People
Product
Focus on Wales paints a picture of the people of Wales. It includes information on their characteristics, sense of national identity, ethnic diversity and Welsh language skills, as well as looking at the Welsh-born living elsewhere in the United Kingdom.
Wales is revealed as a land with a growing but ageing population, with an increasing proportion of residents coming from outside its borders. National identity is strong, and is reinforced by the increase in people able to speak the Welsh language, particularly among the young. Despite this strength of identity, Wales has an increasingly diverse mix of cultures and ethnic backgrounds, centred around Cardiff and its other major towns and cities.
