Councillor steps down following brain tumour diagnosis
Cynon Valley Leader
|June 12, 2025
A POPULAR councillor has resigned due to ill-health after being diagnosed with a brain tumour.
Dawn Wood served as the RCT councillor for Pontypridd Town ward and Pontypridd town councillor but had been absent from her roles since last December for "medical reasons".
She was elected as the Plaid Cymru councillor for Pontypridd Town in May 2022. Cllr Wood will be stepping down from both her roles with immediate effect.
She said that it “was not an easy decision to make”, adding that she was “devastated” to be making the announcement.
“As many of you will be aware, I've had to take a period of absence from my role as both your RCT councillor and Pontypridd town councillor for the past few months because of significant health challenges linked to a brain tumour,” she said in a statement on Wednesday.
“Thank you for all your kind words, support and understanding during this time.
