Welsh Conservatives will put the local elections into focus at a campaign rally in North Wales on Sunday.
A day-long event designed to give party members the tools they need to fight a successful election campaign will be staged at the Optic Technium in St Asaph on Sunday March 25th.
As well as presentations from Secretary of State for Wales Cheryl Gillan and Assembly leader Andrew RT Davies, local government election candidates and Council Group leaders will get the opportunity to take part in policy discussion, and engage in important sessions focussing on campaigning.
Welsh Conservatives aim to build on the success of recent elections in Wales, including the 2008 local elections which saw the party win a record number of seats and take control of the same number of councils as Labour.
Party chairman Jeff James said: "This event will give our candidates and activists the tools and inspiration they need to fight a successful local government election campaign over the next 10 weeks.
"Welsh Conservatives will continue to speak up for local people and communities, with a pledge to ensure they have the power to make a real difference over their own lives, not have decisions dictated to them by the Labour Welsh Government in Cardiff.
"We will be setting out a clear alternative which will focus on Conservative priorities for local government - including helping people meet the cost of council tax, keeping streets clean, and delivering value for money for local services."
