As Christmas fast approaches, local Assembly Member Paul Davies has extended his festive wishes to the people of Pembrokeshire.
Mr Davies said, “2017 has been a very busy and interesting year for Pembrokeshire. This year brought the enthronement of the Rt. Revd Joanna Penberthy, elected as the 129th Bishop of St David’s and Wales’ first female Bishop.”
“2017 also changed the face of our local politics, following the local elections in May, which delivered some big changes to Pembrokeshire County Council – and 2017 was also the year that St David’s tirelessly campaigned to become City of Culture. Now, whilst that bid was not successful, Pembrokeshire was once again on the map, broadcasting itself as a County of cultural significance and importance.”
“Therefore, after such a busy year, it’s important that we give thanks to those who’ve gone above and beyond this year, including our local public servants, our local community champions and our fantastic local emergency services who continue to work around the clock to keep us safe, not just at Christmas but all year round.”
“Finally, may I take this opportunity to wish every family in Pembrokeshire a very Merry Christmas. Christmas is a time of peace and love and I hope that whatever your plans are this Christmas, you’re spending time with the people that you love. I also wish you all a prosperous and peaceful New Year and I look forward to working with as many of you as possible in 2018.”
