Board member Dave tells Tory leader Kemi about this year's Eisteddfod

Eisteddfod board member Dave Hennigan took the opportunity to brief Conservative leader Kemi Badenoch on this year's festival earlier today (Friday).

The two met up outside the International Pavilion where the Welsh Conservatives have been holding their conference this weekend. 

Dave was part of the team making sure things ran smoothly for one of the largest events to be held at the Pavilion since its running was taken over by the Eisteddfod from Denbighshire Leisure last month.

He said: "I met Kemi Badenoch just outside and took the chance to tell her about all the fantastic things that will be happening at Llangollen International Eisteddfod 2025 and also at the Pavilion.

"She took one of our Eisteddfod flyers and wished us well."

Later, Dave evened things up politically when he met Ken Skates, Welsh Labour's Clwyd South Senedd Member and Welsh transport minister, in the town.

"It's always great to catch up with Ken and I updated him on plans for Eisteddfod 2025.

"He's a massive supporter and always ensures that our voice is heard in the Senedd."
