Croseo - Welcome

The CWU North Wales and Chester Combined Branch covers some of the most spectacular scenery to be found in Wales.

The area includes the beautiful Snowdonia mountains, the coastal beaches of Anglesey, Rhyl, Llandudno, Colwyn Bay and the Llyn peninsula.

The Branch also includes the city of Chester which is one of the most picturesque towns of England. The town is encircled by ancient, mainly Roman walls, entered by four gates. The city’s landmarks also include many medieval half-timbered buildings.

The CWU North Wales and Chester Combined Branch was formed from the former North Wales Engineering and the Dee Valley Branches in September 2003. The Branch represents some 780 members across the Branch area.
