Yes, certainly, Carolyn. In fact, Tom, because of time, would you be happy if we went to Carolyn next and then came back to your question? So, Carolyn, go ahead and then you can go with your questions that were going to be later as well.

And more young people were walking into the room just as they were actually hearing what I think is an inspiring thing to be hearing from you, about how even for people who excel, it's not always about you taking to something straight away or that you're good…

In fact, and to come back to that point, because we've spoken before about the emotional relationship that young people have with sport, particularly in school, and you were talking, Tanni, about the lifelong relationship with sport, with physical activity…

But, actually, as we're talking about young people's participation in sport, I'm really glad that there are so many young people here to be able to actually listen to what is being said, because it is for all of you, of course, that we want to be getting this…

Okay. Diolch. Moving on to participation, your 2022-23 report looking at school-age participation identified an 'alarming drop', in your words. Do you think that you have the resources that would be sufficient to drive the change that's necessary to address…

Thank you. And since our committee published the report looking at sports participation in those areas that don't have the same benefits and don't always have the same investment, have you had any discussions with the Welsh Government that have arisen from…

Thank you both very much. We'll go straight into questions, if that's all right. Could you outline for us, please, what the effect is of the cost-of-living pressures that are being felt in Wales on sports participation, but also on facilities?
