Abstract

Catalog Casgliadau Cymru - A Catalogue of Welsh Collections Museums hold objects that tell the story of their locality and communities, and therefore hold key resources to help tell the story of Wales as a whole. Local and independent organisations hold objects and collections that are on a par with those held by our national bodies in their significance but at present there is no formal way of recognising this in Wales. In 2023, the Culture Division commissioned a consultation on a national recognition scheme. The consultation process demonstrated positive feedback from museum staff for a scheme that recognised important and nationally important collections in museums in Wales. This would enable advocacy, fundraising and a better understanding of the story of Wales through its museum collections. However, there was a lot of reservation about a scheme that would be unequal, with an involved and costly process and a panel making a decision at the end. A number of options were considered with the following recommendation made: “Support organisations to understand the significance of their collections and also introduce a streamlined formal recognition scheme”. The Client wishes to appoint Supplier to take forward the recommendation. The objective of the work is to plan, develop a ‘recognition’ type scheme that best fits the Welsh context and the requirements of our museum sector and communities.
