Petition: Produce a Clean Water Bill for Wales and for Welsh Rivers.
Our rivers are crying out for help. We do not have long before it will be too late to save them.
For too long, legislators, regulators and polluters have talked about protecting our rivers but nothing meaningful is ever done.
We are calling on Members of the Senedd to commit to producing a Clean Water Bill for Wales.

Mae Save the River Usk wedi lansio deiseb i'r Senedd yn galw am Bil Dŵr Glân i Gymru i helpu arbed ein hafonydd, bywyd gwyllt a chymunedau.

Deiseb: Cynhyrchu Bil Dŵr Glân i Gymru ac Afonydd Cymru.
Mae ein hafonydd yn gweiddi am gymorth. Nid oes gennym lawer o amser cyn y bydd hi'n rhy hwyr i'w hachub.
Ers gormod o amser, mae deddfwyr, rheoleiddwyr a llygrwyr wedi siarad am amddiffyn ein hafonydd, ond does dim byd ystyrlon byth yn cael ei wneud.
Rydym yn galw ar Aelodau o’r Senedd i ymrwymo i gynhyrchu Bil Dŵr Glân i Gymru.

Last night, we were delighted to attend the Women's Institute's Candlelit Vigil to show solidarity with survivors of violence against women and girls.
The vigil is a dignified event that illuminates the stories of survivors and how much needs to be done to eradicate gender-based violence.
