Wales for Europe (Welsh: Cymru dros Ewrop) is an independent cross-party and non-party grass-roots organisation that aims to speak up for Wales’ place in Europe, believing that Wales and the United Kingdom are inextricably European by virtue of geography, shared history, culture, trade and values.[1][2]
