Let’s build a better and fairer Cymru together.

As the Senedd elections approach, people across Wales want to know how all political parties will act to improve lives and protect our future. We’re inviting all political parties to explain how they would approach these three priorities in the next Senedd term:

Make life fairer. Investing in warmer homes and cheaper, cleaner energy is about fairness. Stopping leaky homes wasting heat and backing rooftop solar will help families across Wales cut bills, create secure jobs and improve our health at the same time.

Put power in people’s hands. Renewable energy can help build a fairer Welsh economy. Ensuring energy projects deliver real local benefits and  supporting our workers to lead the transition will create secure jobs, and keep lasting wealth in Welsh communities.

Restore nature for everyone. Clean rivers, nutritious food, and thriving wildlife are essential to our wellbeing. Supporting farmers and communities to restore nature and produce sustainable food, while holding polluters to account, will improve health, protect the places we love, and pass on a more resilient Wales to the next generation.

People across Wales are doing their best for their families while costs continue to rise. Public services, livelihoods, and nature are all under strain, and yet our communities continue to demonstrate care, creativity, and resilience. 

The challenges we face are connected, and so are the solutions. With practical plans now, we can improve everyone’s lives, prevent further harm from climate change, and restore nature.Taking positive action here in Wales can build a better future, and help ensure we are being globally responsible by reducing the impacts on those already experiencing the worst of climate change around the world.

Wales requires leadership from every party. Wales needs credible plans that recognise shared challenges and commit to tackling them together.
