🚨 My statement on the reported third scabies outbreak:

My key message to sufferers of Endometriosis: You are not alone. I've experienced horrific pain for 40 years. It shouldn't be like this 👇 walesonline.co.uk/news/polit…

Unpaid carers across Pembrokeshire and Ceredigion are holding our already stretched system together. Many are exhausted and still waiting for respite or a proper package. I’ve been there both professionally and as a carer for my own parents. I won't stop fighting for change.

Great to see independent shops and post offices still at the heart of places such as Tenby. Day in, day out, keeping communities connected especially for older residents and those without easy transport. As representatives, it is our duty to protect these local services.

Yesterday’s Budget was not for the people of Ceredigion Penfro. Plaid are claiming the £100 energy payment as their success. It isn't. Meanwhile more public money is going to Cardiff Parkway, a project originally costed at ~£120m, now expected north of £130m and still rising.

I’m concerned to hear about the C. difficile outbreak on Dyfi Ward at Bronglais. The priority is making sure patients are safe and well cared for. Thank you to the staff caring for patients and managing this situation.

Cofiwn Aberfan 21.10.1966 💔

This week we remember the 144 adults and children who lost their lives in Aberfan. Never forget. 🙏

Inspiring visit to Marie Curie’s hospice in Penarth. Truly moved by the staff and volunteers. Palliative care should start earlier with better symptom control and quality of life. I’ll keep pushing for better access in Ceredigion Penfro. Location should never be a barrier. 💛

I want to make sure everyone across Ceredigion Penfro and Wales can easily keep up with the work I’m doing in the Senedd and in our communities. To keep updated, below are the links to my website and social media accounts.

Today marks World Mental Health Day. Life can be challenging, but nobody should feel they have to face those challenges alone. If you need support, organisations such as Mind Cymru provide advice, guidance and services for people experiencing mental health difficulties.

The WRU's plan to cut 4 professional teams to 3 has left supporters with serious questions. These clubs are more than “just” rugby teams, representing communities and generations of loyal fans. In Reform, we believe the public deserves transparency and their voices heard.

This week in the Senedd I contributed to a debate on Welsh ports and the vital role they play for Pembrokeshire and west Wales. Our ports support jobs and energy security, but they need investment and strong transport links to grow and deliver for communities.

This morning I spoke on BBC Radio Wales Breakfast regarding the reported Scabies outbreak in Hywel Dda Hospitals. I have asked the Welsh Gov't for an urgent update, I am still yet to hear from them. It's crucial we know how this occurred and how we can prevent another outbreak.

Today I am standing up in the Senedd for Withybush. Political accountability MUST sit with us who are democratically elected. Here is my letter to you.

A short montage video from yesterdays trip down the haven, we are so lucky to have this on our doorstep in Pembrokeshire 🩵

Admiral + Legal & General have confirmed large job losses, a serious blow to the Welsh economy. By loading higher business rates onto big companies, Plaid has added costs and made further cuts extremely likely. Our answer? A simpler, pro-growth replacement.

I’m delighted and very honoured to accept the role of Shadow Minister for Social Care. I will work hard to hold the Government to account and push for better care and outcomes for the people of Wales 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 if you need any help please get in touch. Claire.Archibald-MS@senedd.wales

Huge congratulations to Helen Jenner AS/MS on becoming leader of Reform UK Wales! Helen's passion and energy is exactly what is needed to bring the Welsh Government to account as we continue doing what we were elected to do by the people of Wales.
