Welcome To Holyhead Croeso I Caergybi

09/11/2026

Delighted to have been appointed Vice Chair of the All-Party Parliamentary Group for Cruise.

Cruise tourism plays an important role in supporting coastal communities, creating jobs, and bringing investment to ports across the UK, including communities such as Holyhead.

I look forward to working with colleagues across Parliament and the industry to champion the sector and ensure coastal communities benefit from the opportunities it provides.

❤️ What lovely words about our town from Ynys Môn MP Llinos Medi!

It’s fantastic to see Holyhead receiving such positive recognition and, in particular, the lovely mention of our Welcome to Holyhead volunteers and Holyhead Town Council. 👏

Llinos highlights how our town is moving forward, not just through investment and regeneration, but through the people, organisations and volunteers who work tirelessly to make Holyhead a better place.

We particularly loved her words:

💬 “The Holyhead Welcome Committee provides a warm welcome to cruise passengers arriving in the town.”

And perhaps our favourite part:

💬 “That community spirit is our greatest asset, and it will be central to the town’s success for many years to come.”

We couldn’t agree more! ❤️

As the Welcome to Holyhead volunteer group, led by Holyhead Town Council, we are incredibly proud to play even a small part in the bigger picture.

There is so much fantastic work happening across Holyhead, some of it very visible and plenty going on behind the scenes. From our volunteers and community groups to local businesses, organisations and those working to regenerate our town, everyone has a part to play.

We all share one thing in common: a passion for Holyhead and wanting to see our little town thrive! 💙

A big thank you to Llinos Medi for recognising the hard work taking place and, most importantly, the people behind it.

There’s a lot to be proud of in Holyhead, and plenty more to look forward to! 🥰

Diolch Llinos Medi - Ynys Môn

🎄❤️ What a fantastic initiative by the team at Empire Play Centre!

They’re once again putting on a FREE Christmas Dinner for our over 50s, with a lovely 3-course meal, some bingo, music and plenty of festive fun along the way! 🎅🎶

This was such a brilliant event last year, and it’s lovely to see it returning for another year. Best of all, it’s completely FREE! ❤️

🎟️ Tickets will be available from the Empire tomorrow!

Please tag away if you know anyone who would enjoy coming along! Or why not pop down and grab a couple of tickets for your parents, grandparents or relatives who would love a nice afternoon out?

Sometimes it’s the little things like this that make a big difference, especially at Christmas. ❤️

👏 Well done to all Empire Staff for making this happen again!

🎄 Let’s get the word out and make sure our older residents don’t miss out!

🇺🇸🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿 DID YOU KNOW THERE’S A HOLYHEAD DRIVE IN AMERICA? 🌎

Here’s a little something interesting we discovered!

Over 3,700 miles away in Wisconsin, USA, there’s a small village called Wales, with a fascinating connection to our Welsh heritage! ❤️

The village was settled by Welsh immigrants during the 19th century, and many of its streets are named after places back here in Wales!

You’ll find names including:

🏡 Holyhead Drive

And also………….
🏡 Anglesey Road
🏡 Cardiff Road
🏡 Caernarvon Road
🏡 Mount Snowdon Road
🏡 Swansea Glen

The village even celebrates its Welsh roots, with Welsh dragons and traditions forming part of its local identity!

How amazing to think that the name of our little town here on Anglesey can also be found on a street sign thousands of miles away in America! ❤️

We’d love to find out whether any of the original Welsh settlers had connections to Holyhead or Anglesey.

🇺🇸 Have you ever visited Wisconsin, or spotted the name Holyhead anywhere else around the world?
