Call for strategic approach to flooding
We have seen too many times the terrible impact that flooding can have on our homes and businesses. Here in Pontypridd people are still dealing with the results of the flooding from a year ago.Fight for Justice for Flood Victims Continues a Year-on
“The need for an Independent Inquiry remains, and the fight continues until we secure justice for those affected and investment in flood prevention measures. Our communities will not be able to rest easy until this happens, and I call on the Welsh Government to re-think their position to date, and establish an Independent Inquiry as a matter of urgency.”

Before a period working as an educational coordinator across south east Wales, Nadine worked as a lecturer within education and childcare.
