Manifesto for a better Rhuthun

Plaid Cymru's vision for Rhuthun is rooted in our community. We believe the future of Rhuthun should be taken forward based on local needs and aspirations.

It will be necessary during the next five years to fight vigorously for our schools, our hospital and our council services to ensure that Rhuthun retains the level of services that it deserves. We must ensure that Rhuthun has a strong unified voice to protect the culture and values of Rhuthun and to ensure that our community prospers in the future.

As councillors we must lead in ensuring that the things which make our community great are protected and that our community possesses the ability to thrive in the future.

We believe in the people of Rhuthun working together to take charge of our community's future.

We have set out a bold mixture of policies to ensure that Rhuthun is the guide to its own destiny.

To have more influence on the council and to ensure that we are successful in bringing more power to local people, we need more Plaid councillors.

We have a committed team of local people who all want our town and county to thrive. We want the people of Rhuthun to be the driving force that leads to the success of our town. Our future prosperity as residents is in our own hands. We can remove the barriers to greater success for our community if we work together.

As your Plaid Cymru councillors we will work to ensure that we live in a prosperous Rhuthun, a safer Rhuthun and a Rhuthun that will thrive and prosper by the end of our term.

We will work to protect the integrity of our community, we will work to ensure our town prospers.

Join with us and play your part in creating a better Rhuthun.
