WASPI 20 for 20

Celebrating 20 Years of WASPI in 20 articles

Welcome to the WASPI 20 for 20 site, where we mark the 20th anniversary of the Wales Accord on the Sharing of Personal Information - a milestone that celebrates two decades of empowering safe, lawful, and effective data sharing across Wales. 

Since its inception in 2005, WASPI has grown from a pioneering concept into a cornerstone of public service delivery. It has enabled organisations across health, education, crime prevention, and social well-being to collaborate confidently, consistently and lawfully for the benefit of the citizens of Wales  

Whether you're a long-standing partner or new to the Accord, we invite you to explore the site and discover how WASPI can support your organisation.  Together, we’ve proven that responsible data sharing transforms lives. Here’s to the next 20 years of innovation, collaboration, and trust. 

Here are some things that the WASPI Service has been doing to celebrate WASPI’s 20th anniversary. We’ve had a job limiting the key events and achievements of this year to 20 articles, but if you have a story to share or want to get involved, reach out via waspiservice@wales.nhs.uk and be part of the future of WASPI in Wales.
