Barmouth Town Council were greatly saddened to hear the news that Cllr Rob Triggs passed away in the early hours of this morning after a long illness.
Rob has been a fantastic, committed advocate for Barmouth, both as a Town Councillor and as our County Councillor – he was still attending Gwynedd Council meetings by zoom until very recently. He was passionate about the town and its people. When you look around Barmouth and notice improvements, it’s almost certain that Rob was involved in them.
We send our deepest condolences to Tina, Kes, Kane, Mike and the rest of his family. Our thoughts are with you at this time. Rob will be much missed by us all.

At the AGM of Barmouth Town Council on 27th May, Cllr Adam Hills completed his year of service as Mayor. Adam has juggled his year as mayor with his full time job as a paramedic. It made for some interesting sights when he turned up for meetings and events dressed ready for his shift – not the usual outfit to wear with the mayoral chain. He also had to disappear quickly once or twice and even missed out on visiting Santa due to his shift! He was ably assisted by his wife Amanda who stepped in several times to do “mayoral” things when Adam was working.

Adam nominated Cllr Rob Cadwaladr Williams as mayor for 2025/26 and he was enthusiastically seconded by all the Council. It doesn’t promise to be a quieter year as Rob is full time Senior Station Technician at RNLI Barmouth so may get called out on a shout half way through presenting the prizes at the 10K or the dog show! Rob then nominated Cllr Damian Williams as deputy mayor for the year.

Also at the AGM the Council welcomed two new Councillors, Deana Davies-Fisher and Lena Vacher who were co-opted to fill two vacancies. We welcome them both and look forward to their contributions to Barmouth and the Council.
