Who are we
Living Streets Cymru, Walk Wheel Cycle Trust Cymru and Cycling UK Cymru represent the voices of those who walk, wheel or cycle in Wales and those who do not yet have the choice to do so.
Our organisations have thousands of supporters across the nation - and we know that commitment to active travel and sustainable transport is a critical issue that they'd like to see the next Welsh Government deliver on.
We have invited candidates from the main political parties to speak directly to voters about their vision for sustainable and active transport in Wales. The event will give them a chance to outline their party’s priorities before taking part in a Q&A session with you.
Candidates

Plaid Cymru Peredur Owen Griffiths

We proactively reached out to a range of candidates from diverse backgrounds. We try to ensure that speakers at our events reflect all communities in Wales. Ultimately the parties decided who they would like to represent them at this event. We thank all the panellists for agreeing to attend and take part in our discussion.
