3) Phoebe Jenkins

Phoebe Jenkins is standing for election to bring meaningful change to her community. 

A working mum, Phoebe wants to champion the voices of local residents by prioritising their needs and concerns in the Senedd and ensure that they are no longer being ignored.

The housing crisis, child poverty, poor access to GPs and dentists are just some of Phoebe's priorities and as someone who loves the natural environment, she is very concerned by the polluting of our waterways in Wales which is why she will push for harsher regulations against sewage dumpers.

She said: “As a working mother with a young family, I understand the day-to-day struggles that can come from searching for affordable childcare which is why I will work towards lifting the barriers that are preventing so many families from accessing childcare.
