The Welsh Local Government Association (WLGA) represents the interests of local government and its associate members in the implementation of the Strategy for Older People in Wales and on issues affecting older people. The WLGA’s primary purposes are to promote better local government and its reputation and to support authorities in the development of policies and priorities which will improve public services and local democracy. These purposes coincide with the aspirations of Better Government for Older People (BGOP) for older people to be engaged as citizens in the development of policies and services that suit their needs.
Direct support to local government is provided by the Welsh Local Government Association (WLGA).
