Incredibly sad to hear of the passing of HM Queen Elizabeth II. As our longest reigning monarch, she firmly upheld the values and traditions of the British Monarchy. On behalf of the people of Wales I offer our deepest condolences to Her Majesty's family during this sad time.
It is with great sadness that people in Wales mourn the death of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. Throughout her long and exceptional life, as our longest reigning monarch, Her Majesty has reigned over the United Kingdom and Commonwealth firmly upholding the values and traditions of the British Monarchy. We pay tribute to Her Majesty’s dedication and selfless devotion. She will be sorely missed by the many organisations for which she was Patron or President. We offer our sincere condolences to her children and their families on this sad occasion - The First Minister of Wales, Mark Drakeford

Always wear a PFD on deck. Wear it correctly, according to the instructions. Wearing a PLB is also highly recommended.@Welsh_Fishermen

2022 is the International Year of Artisanal Fisheries & Aquaculture, & we're getting involved. It's difficult (read *impossible*) to express the importance of small-scale fishers in 280 characters, so you'll have to read our latest blog for more... 🌍🐟 buff.ly/3zYgQI0

#Fireworks can be mistaken for flares at the coast So, if you’re having an organised #firework party near the coast this week, please let your local coastguard centre know as it could save vital time & resources bit.ly/3nq0wbi #BonfireNight #FireworksNight #GuyFawkes
