Reform Wales have revealed their list of six candidates who will contest the Senedd elections on May 7.

The former Montgomeryshire constituency has been swallowed up by a newly named Gwynedd Maldwyn constituency that will cover an enormous area stretching the breadth of Wales.

Under the new election format, residents will vote for parties as opposed to individual candidates with the newly increased 96 seats then distributed based on the number of votes received.

Gwynedd Maldwyn will be represented by six candidates at the Senedd.

Below are the six nominations submitted by Reform Wales.
