Janet is passionate about animals and marine conservation, and she is also a keen sailor.

Full statement

She lives in Llandudno with her husband, Gareth Saunders, and their two children, Adam and Hannah. Janet is proud to have served as Mayor of Llandudno – following in the footsteps of both her parents, who also held the position before her.

Politically, Janet’s key priorities include securing greater investment in health and social services – particularly for the elderly and for those experiencing mental health challenges; cutting unnecessary regulation and red tape for farmers; ensuring the full rollout of superfast broadband to rural communities; and tackling waste in government at all levels.

A successful businesswoman and entrepreneur, Janet has founded a number of thriving local businesses. She is a strong advocate for new start-ups and established SMEs, and founded the Cross-Party Group on Small Shops during the Fourth Assembly to support small business owners across Wales.
