The leader of Plaid Cymru has been out on the campaign trail with the party's Alyn and Deeside candidate.

Leanne Wood, AM for Rhondda, joined Carrie Harper on a visit to worktop firm Grantech, in Buckley.

Cllr Harper, who represents the Queensway ward on Wrexham Council, is one of five candidates vying for the vacant seat in tomorrow's by-election.

She said: “Flintshire and Wrexham are the powerhouse of North Wales but we also need to remember that small and medium enterprises are the backbone of that economy.

"Grantech is a leading local company based in Buckley with a local workforce that's producing high-end kitchens and worktops.

“It’s a real success story as the company is investing heavily in new premises as it expands.”

She continued: “I was really impressed with the quality on offer and the company is importing top-quality granite and quartz from across the world.

“The local workforce then turns these raw materials into high-end kitchen finishes.

“We need to nurture this sector of the economy, which employ so many workers in this part of Wales.”
