AT DOLGELLAU Town Council’s annual meeting, Cllr Ywain Myfyr was re-elected as mayor of the town, along with Cllr Bob Gunton as deputy.

Cllr Myfyr has chaired Dolgellau Town Council meetings for a year now, following years of service as a councillor and deputy mayor.

“Born and raised in Dolgellau, it was my privilege to take up the mantle of town mayor last year and am grateful to my fellow councillors for re-electing me for a second year at the helm,” said Cllr Myfyr.

“I’m also very thankful to Bob Gunton. He doesn’t rest on his laurels – in fact, I count Bob as one of Dolgellau’s unsung heroes.

“He leads on projects such as the town’s Christmas lights and decorations and carries out thankless work, completely voluntarily, that really makes a difference.

“I plan to pass the baton on to Bob in 2025.”

Cllr Gunton said: “I am amazed at Myfyr’s tireless enthusiasm and energy and how he gives his time for the benefit of our town and people.

“I look forward to another year of working together.”

Dolgellau Town Council meets again at 7pm on September 3 in the Free Library.

A public session is held for 10 minutes at the beginning of each meeting, where members of the public are welcome to question the council.
