Just come back from delivering some 10,000 leaflets over the last three days around Cynon Valley. If you haven't had one yet, there'll be one delivered to your house soon! Thanks to all of those who helped.
Its been really interesting talking to people about the problems that they face in their everyday lives. Today, I've been looking at the litter problem in the woodlands on the road out of Abercynon towards 'Ceiber. I've also been talking to people in Mountain Ash who are having real difficulties with anti social behaviour and the lack of police action. I'm already looking forward to the responses - so please send the surveys in. If anyone hasn't had a survey yet please Email me and I'll Email one over.

Grit and Planning!
I've just been reading that RCT have again suspended school transport for tomorrow. I disagree fundamentally with their decision to cancel school transport today. Surely they can get their act together to try and sort things out, and if buses are running then I'd have thought the school buses should also run.
Getting this right however really is shutting the stable door once the horse has bolted. Why is it that RCT seems to have been probably the worse hit council in the whole of Wales. Has the weather been that different in Merthyr or Blaenau Gwent or Bridgend County Borough. The sad truth is that the council hasn't prepared properly for cold weather and its the children (and parents) of RCT that are now suffering.

Keep Warm this Winter
I for one am certainly enjoying the snow, and I haven’t yet thrown my first snowball. That’s one for later today!
While most of us will surely be enjoying the snow, it really it very important to keep an eye on some of our more elderly neighbours and family. Do they have enough food in? Have they got the heating set properly? I’m very pleased that Plaid has been campaiging all Winter for more help for families with their energy bills, and if anyone would like to find out more about the campaign please visit: http://www.warmingwales.plaidcymru.org/content.php?lID=1
Do you have other ideas that could help families out during this cold period? If so please post your comments below.
And please remember to wrap up very warm to go outside and eat plenty of fresh fruit – there’s nothing better than Vitamin C to keep cold germs at bay!

Why I set up Cynon’s Future
I decided to set up Cynon’s Future because I’m passionate about setting out a better future for our Valley. Yes, I’m standing as the Plaid candidate for the next Parliamentary election, but Cynon’s Future is far more important than any election. My hope is that it will bring together everyone with an interest in building a better Cynon Valley from all parties and none – to work on a plan for the future of the Valley. For too long Cynon Valley has been ignored by government’s of all political shades.
It’s time to do something for ourselves and build a better future, so that the next generation can see an exciting and rewarding future for themselves here in Cynon Valley.
Please get involved, send in your comments, hold house meetings – because together we can make a difference.
