You might be lucky and find someone willing who's local but more realistically it's a do it yourself kind of job. Whereabouts in N Wales are you it's a big place?

The Food Standards Agency will have a list of licensed poultry abattoirs. They're pretty scarce these days - even rarer than red meat abattoirs. I found one to do my turkeys via the FSA. The list may be on their website, though I remember it being a nightmare to navigate because there is so much stuff. Might be easier to give them a ring or drop and email.
