WEATHER presenter Sian Lloyd has proved 'It's Always Sunny in Wrexham' by backing its City of Culture bid.

The presenter, who has the Twitter name @SianWeather, shared a video of her support on social media.

In the video, she called Wrexham her "home from home" and added that she has lots of friends and family there.

She said: "Wrexham and culture go together like Hollywood actors and Wrexham Football Club."

She added: "Wrexham has a thriving live music scene."

Wrexham is the only remaining Welsh applicant in the running to be City of Culture.

The county has seen its profile rocket in the last 12 months as the "Hollywood of Europe" after the takeover of the town's football club by stars Ryan Reynolds and It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia presenter Rob McElhenney.

Rebel Wilson was in the town to shoot a film recently and Anchorman star Will Ferrell says he plans to visit as soon as this month.

Actors Will Arnett, Jason Bateman, Jason Watkins, Danny DeVito, Hugh Jackman, and Charlie Day have all made social media posts in support of the town and its football club.

The Wrexham City of Culture bid 2025 looks to engage with as many members of the community as possible and get their ideas and opinions on what Wrexham's year as hosts should look like.

Creatives will be encouraged to contribute to the decision-making and planning with the aim of getting as many communities and voices heard around Wrexham.

Although Wrexham Council are leading on the bid, local businesses and diverse communities are shaping how Wrexham's year of hosting will look in 2025.

The competition uses culture to 'level up' areas of the UK, bringing increased productivity and opportunities to selected areas of the country.

The aim is to explore how culture can reanimate public spaces and shopping areas, and work on how to best upgrade the local civic and artistic infrastructure to take full advantage of the opportunities that the levelling up agenda provides.

This is said to be especially important as Wrexham recovers from the Covid pandemic.
