Gender equality charity Chwarae Teg makes half its workforce redundant

Wales' leading gender equality charity has been forced to make half its workforce redundant following a loss of funding due to Brexit.

Chwarae Teg - Welsh for “fair play” - will lose 24 workers on May 31, leaving it with a staff of 25. Launched in 1992 with current Social Justice Minister Jane Hutt as its first director, the body has championed the role of women in the workplace.

For more than a decade, Chwarae Teg has benefitted from grants allocated by the EU’s European Social Fund. Its Agile Nation2 programme has provided support for businesses and career development programmes for women in Wales.
