Mid and West Wales or Mid and South West WalesWest Wales overlaps both Mid Wales and South West Wales under some definitions is a geographic and statistical region of Wales that is sometimes used, consisting broadly of the preserved counties of Dyfed and Powys, sometimes Swansea and sometimes parts of Gwynedd. Since 2025, the Office for National Statistics for its International Territorial Level classification, has used a "Mid and South West Wales" ITL2 region comprising Mid Wales and South West Wales (with Neath Port Talbot and Swansea as separate ITL3 regions). It is also used sometimes as replacement for the regions of Mid Wales and South West Wales or West Wales in certain scenarios.
There is a Mid and West Wales Fire and Rescue Service and a Dyfed-Powys Police service.
There was also an electoral region for the Senedd with the same name, which was used, in parallel with the smaller constituencies, to elect top-up members under the Additional Member System from 1999 to 2026. A European Parliament constituency existed from 1979 until 1999.
