The All-Party Parliamentary Group (APPG) for the Western Gateway works to raise the profile of the Western Gateway, the pan-national economic area covering South Wales and Western England, in Westminster.  

The group brings together parliamentarians from both sides of the Severn in support of the Western Gateway, a cross-border economic partnership of local authorities, city regions, academics, industry groups and governments covering South Wales and Western England.

The APPG has existed since 2021, and provides a forum for Members of all parties and both Houses to meet with ministers, experts and other stakeholders.  The Western Gateway Partnership is proud to provide secretarial services for the APPG.
