Clwyd South MP Simon Baynes has met with two new councillors from his constituency.

Cllr Damon Richards-Gwilliam was co-opted on to Llangollen Town Council in June, making him one of the youngest councillors in Denbighshire. 


Since becoming a councillor he has been assigned to the council's Climate, Ecology and Cittaslow Committee. 


He is one of 11 members of the council, which meets on the third Tuesday of the month at 6pm in the Council Chambers in Llangollen. 


Cllr Damon Richards-Gwilliam said: “I would like to thank Mr Baynes for taking the time to meet with me. I am determined to serve the people of Llangollen where I live and delivering for them.”

Mr Baynes also met Cllr Will Martin who was co-opted on to Brymbo Community Council on July 6, making him one of the youngest elected officials within Wrexham County Borough. 


Cllr Will Martin said: “It is an honour to be able to represent my community of Brymbo on our Community Council. 


"Going forward, my main priorities will be to focus on ensuring the development in Brymbo is completed and that the people of the village have their voice heard.”

 

Brymbo Community Council represents the Brymbo, Bwlchgwyn and Tanyfron communities and is comprised of 11 members in total. 


They meet once per month on Tuesdays, with the dates of their meetings available on their website: https://www.brymbo.org/


Mr Baynes said: “It was a pleasure to meet with two of our newest councillors and learn about their ambitious plans for their local communities. 


"Both Damon and Will are two of the youngest councillors in Denbighshire and Wrexham respectively and it is great to see young people coming forward to serve their communities. I look forward to working with them.”
