Politics vs Planning: with Cathy Owens, Director at Cavendish Cymru

With 100 days to go until the Senedd elections, join Cavendish Cymru for our first 2026 session of Politics vs Planning. We’ll unpack the latest polling trends and likely campaign focus for the main parties. We’ll also look at what the run-in means for planning and community engagement in Wales.

Cathy Owens will explore how the election and a potential new government could shape economic development, housing and planning policy, and the practical implications for developers, engaging communities and decision-makers in the months ahead.

Join us on Tuesday, 27th January at the Cardiff Town House, 18 The Hayes, St Davids Centre, Cardiff, CF10 1AH, between 12.30pm and 2pm for lunch, networking, and discussions with peers as we hit the 100-day mark before the election.

This session is designed for professionals working in the built environment who want a practical, politics-aware context for live projects in Wales. Spaces are limited; RSVP via the link below.
