Hywel Francis MP visits young mums
MP for Aberavon, Wales meets young mums at YWCA Cwmafan
Hywel Francis MP visited YWCA Cwmafan on Friday 26th June to meet young mums accessing the centre's services.
The MP for Aberavon met the young mums to discuss issues that affect them in the community and the range of support and information available to them.
It was the minister's first visit to the centre although he had met young women from YWCA Cwmafan on their previous visits to parliament.
Helen Williams, YWCA's centre manager said: "We were pleased to have Dr. Hywel Francis MP at our centre, his visit showed the young mums that their voices and contributions are being heard despite the barriers and prejudices they might face."
