Arfor and the Valleys

Plaid Cymru will continue work to develop our vision for Arfor (north and west Wales) and the Valleys embracing economic development, higher education and vocational training, renewable energy and Welsh language promotion.

The Arfor programme

Negotiated by Plaid Cymru, the Co-operation Agreement will create a second phase of the Arfor programme, delivered by four Plaid Cymru-led local authorities as key partners. So far, the programme has created 238 full-time equivalent and 89 part-time jobs, safeguarded 226 full-time jobs, and supported 154 businesses.
