Ten Towns
Regenerating Carmarthenshire's rural towns
Our Ten Towns initiative is to support the economic recovery and growth of rural towns across the County. The initiative was established as a direct response to our Moving Rural Carmarthenshire Forward Plan, which sets out a number of key recommendations to support the regeneration of rural Carmarthenshire.
A key part of the programme is the development of Economic growth plans to drive forward an agenda for change for each of the respective towns and their wider hinterland:
- Cross Hands
- Cwmaman
- Kidwelly
- Laugharne
- Llandeilo
- Llandovery
- Llanybydder
- Newcastle Emlyn
- St.Clears
- Whitland
The development of the growth plans are part funded via the Welsh Government Rural Communities - Rural Development Programme 2014-2020, which is funded by the Welsh Government and the European Union.

What will the plans look like?
Each plan will have their own priority actions, as well as identified projects that will support the economic recovery and growth of each rural town, which will include actions to support:
- Covid-19 recovery
- Business growth
- Smart digital towns and countryside
- Tourism and visitor economy
- Re-use of buildings and land development
The economic impacts of COVID-19 and the future local economic growth are also being assessed for our three main town centres of Ammanford, Carmarthen and Llanelli. These plans will be available as soon as they are published.
What happens next?
External consultants Owen Davies Consulting and The Means have been working with the local business community, Town Councils and local stakeholders across the Ten Towns to prepare a plan to guide investment and support sustainable and inclusive growth now and into the future.
The progress of each plan can be found on the consultant websites.
