There are two levels of local government in Pembrokeshire - the local authority Pembs County Council (PCC) and the 78 Community Councils which represent the first tier of local government - the one closest to the community and with the most local knowledge. The Llanrhian Community Council area encompasses Square & Compass, Croesgoch, Trefin, Abereiddy, Porthgain and Llanrhian. Its activities are governed by legislation and it raises income through its Precept (derived from the local Council Tax) and spends this money on its activities, services and projects. It owns Trefin playpark and Trefin Pavilion.

I grew up locally in Llanreithan parish, then moved away for study & career opportunities, returning in 2019 to live in Porthgain. I spent many of the intervening years in China and that experience taught me the value of strong community networks providing mutual support. I truly believe we can be stronger by working together to build a thriving, vibrant local community for the current and future generations to enjoy.
