Who is Catrin Thomas?

I was the Reform UK Candidate for Gŵyr (Gower) in last year's General Election; I am the interim Chair of the Gŵyr Abertawe Branch of Reform UK; I graduated from Swansea University; and I lived in Mumbles when its famous Mile ended at Cinderella's. I am committed to bringing positive change to this beautiful part of Wales, from the Gower Peninsula to Pontarddulais and Swansea City.

Labour and Plaid Cymru have had 26 years to build a better Wales. They have failed.  Join with me; Wales needs Reform.

We alternate meetings between the Gower and the Swansea sides of our constituency. Currently we meet on a monthly basis; we will always meet at least quarterly

How can I find out more, if I'm not a Member?

Easily! We plan to hold small, friendly Ward meetings across the constituency all summer, where non-Members can come to ask questions, chat to existing Members, and find out more about Reform UK policies and plans for the future. Just drop me an email (see Contact, above) and I'll put you in touch with your local ward manager
