About David

David Chadwick is the Welsh Liberal Democrat MP for Brecon, Radnor and Cwm Tawe, having been first elected to serve in the role in the 2024 General Election. David also currently serves as the Liberal Democrat Frontbench Spokesperson for Wales in Parliament. 

David lives in Brecon with his partner Gemma and young son William.

Prior to being elected, David worked as a consultant in Cybersecurity.

David became interested in politics when his grandfather took him to see the steelworks in Port Talbot to see what it was like to work in a blast furnace stating it gave him an early insight into how politics, industry and communities are intrinsically linked.

David's priorities for Brecon, Radnor and Cwm Tawe include: 

• Fighting for a fairer deal for local farmers, producers and small businesses.
• Protecting our pristine natural environment, including ending sewage dumping in the River Wye, Tawe and Usk.
• Fighting for better economic investment, well-paid jobs and improved infrastructure in rural Wales and the former industrial heartlands of the upper Swansea Valley; making sure that our residents aren't ignored by those in London and the South East.
• Ensuring Wales receives fair funding in order to tackle issues such as the crisis in the NHS and social care.
