Invite your Members of the Senedd to a briefing on coal in Wales
We're holding a briefing in the Senedd on 30th November. Invite your Members of the Senedd to this hybrid in-person/online event!
We want as many MSs, and their advisors, there as possible. Personal invites from constituents show that this is a pressing issue needing their attention which could make the difference as to whether they attend.
Send a quick email to your MSs and ask them to come. A sample letter is below - personalise it or write your own entirely.
Thank you!

Dear [insert name],
I'm concerned that there are three coal mines in Wales which are looking to increase their coal extraction and operating period. These are Aberpergwm underground anthracite coal mine near Glynneath, Neath Port Talbot; Ffos-y-fran opencast coal mine near Merthyr Tydfil and Glan Lash opencast coal mine, near Ammanford, in Carmarthenshire.
We are facing a climate crisis, the greatest historical cause of which has been coal consumption. It's time for Wales to decarbonise, not allow more coal.
Please confirm if you intend to attend an upcoming briefing session in the Senedd on this critical subject. Here are the event details:
