Foreword

by Adam Price MS, Plaid Cymru Leader

Plaid Cymru is a party that is rooted in community.

We are passionate about Wales and about making a difference to people’s lives.

Whether it’s helping people who have lost their homes due to flooding, delivering food parcels to those in need, or backing local businesses, Plaid Cymru is out there every day in communities across Wales working hard on behalf of the people they represent.

Plaid Cymru representatives - our community champions - want to build the Wales of tomorrow. One that’s more sustainable, fairer, and forward-looking - where everyone has the same opportunity to reach their full potential.

Plaid Cymru is already putting its good ideas into action.

We have secured £200 million in this year’s budget to extend Free School Meals, on a universal basis, to all primary school pupils.

We know there are more children and families who need help. That is why Plaid Cymru Local Authorities will commit to the aim of extending universal Free School Meals to include secondary school pupils during the next council term, as part of Plaid Cymru’s vision of introducing this policy across Wales.

We are extending free access to childcare for two-year-olds on a universal basis.

We are tackling Wales’s housing crisis by building more energy-efficient social housing, and more genuinely affordable homes. We are taking radical action to reduce the number of second homes.

We are creating a National Energy Company, Ynni Cymru to establish renewable, community-owned energy schemes.

Politics is about priorities and for Plaid Cymru, our priority has always been the people of Wales, and doing whatever we can, whenever we can to improve their lives.

Because Plaid Cymru is a party that works for everyone in Wales.

Whoever you are, wherever you are, and whatever language you speak, you can trust Plaid Cymru to make a difference for you, your family, and your community.
