Party of Wales Gwynedd Councillors' Group

Three Plaid Cymru Councillors share their thoughts on the news that two Wales Air Ambulance bases are to be closed. Plaid Cymru Gwynedd Councillor, Llio Elenid Owen, Y Groeslon Ward representative said: "The news today regarding the closure of Dinas Dinlle, Caernarfon’s Wales Air Ambulance service is bitterly disappointing and completely heart wrenching. The whole community has worked tirelessly to convey the importance of this crucial service in my Ward which serves the whole of Gwynedd. We will lose a valuable resource, jobs and expertise from the area. Today is a tragic day for this community, for the surrounding area and for Gwynedd as a whole."

For the first time in history, two thirds of councillors in a Welsh local authority now belong to a Plaid Cymru Group. Gwynedd Council’s Plaid Cymru group is delighted to welcome an independent Meirionnydd councillor to join the councillors political group.

Over 200 people attended the public meeting at Neuadd y Pentref in Ganllwyd, Meirionnydd to show their support to the UK's first purpose-built mountain bike centre. Coed y Brenin visitor centre in Ganllwyd near Dolgellau opened in 1996 and concerns had been raised that Natural Resource Wales (NRW) was currently reviewing the future of the site and two other visitor centres across north and mid Wales.
