Local groups are absolutely crucial in helping the historic environment remain a vibrant place that people visit, that people experience, that people can volunteer at and that people can acquire skills at. The voluntary group that has looked at Ruperra castle is particularly active, and I congratulate them on their work. In the Member’s constituency, we have the fastest growing visitor attraction in the Cadw estate—that’s Caerphilly castle—and increases in visitor figures have largely been driven by the Year of Adventure activities, including the Caerphilly Dragon, which I know many Members in this Chamber have visited.
