🚲 A brilliant day at @PedalPower_Diff! We visited Pedal Power and had the chance to try a range of adapted bikes - discovering how cycling can be made accessible, inclusive and fun for everyone. 1/3

Just 64 days in and two education unions have taken the unprecedented step of seeking independent conciliation with the Plaid Cymru Welsh Government. That's a failure of social partnership. Teachers and school leaders are clear - the supplementary budget was not good enough.

Council Leader, Cllr Huw Thomas and Cabinet Member for Culture, Cllr Jennifer Burke visited St David’s Hall recently to hear about the progress being made by Academy Music Group to repair the historic venue’s roof and return it to its place at the heart of Wales’s cultural scene.

🛍 In Riverside, we’re upgrading the area around Lower Cathedral Road, Neville Street and Despenser Gardens—making it safer, cleaner and more welcoming. Proud to invest in a thriving local shopping street. @CaroWild @leothomson

Lots to be optimistic about in the spending review. A record extra £5B for Welsh Government is key to protecting local services and the NHS, but the funding announced will also help deliver more frequent train services and new stations. The difference a Labour Government makes.
