Tim Jones was appointed as Eryri’s National Park Authority Chairman at the Authority's latest meeting.

Tim Jones has been a Welsh Government member of the Authority for 4 years and has served as vice-Chair for 8 months. He also has over 25 years of management experience for Natural Resources Wales.

Tim Jones, the National Park Authority’s newly appointed Chairman said:

“I’m eagerly looking forward for the opportunity to lead Eryri’s National Park Authority over the next few years. We have difficult challenges ahead of us such as financial resources and climate and nature chanlleges but Eryri is such an unique place and I look forward to contributing towards what makes it such a beautiful area of the world. I’m also excited about supporting staff and members to ensure that the National Park continues to be a special place to live and visit.”

Councillor Einir Wyn Williams (Gerlan) was welcomed as a new member of Cyngor Gwynedd, replacing Councillor Kim Jones (Llanberis) who recently left the Authority.

This was also the last Authority Meeting for Tracey Evans as her term came to an end. Both were thanked for their contributions during their tenures.
