Funding for groups

I would like to make you aware that the Police and Crime Commissioner, Mr Dafydd Llywelyn is launching his funding programme where grants of between £5,000 and £10,000 are available to groups and organisations across the Force.

The Commissioner is inviting applications from voluntary and community organisations, as well as the public and private sectors, for projects which will have a positive impact on the security and safety of local communities and is also encouraging organisations to work collaboratively on this.

I would be very grateful for your support in promoting this opportunity on Social Media and within the local communities you serve. If you know of any groups who would benefit from this funding, please let them know about it.

The closing date for applications is 24th May 2019.

Garden fencing is now in place

We have been busy in the garden again, with thanks to Llansadwrn Community Council who have paid for fence which now defines the boundary of the garden. We will be softening the fencing with climbing plants and a hedgeline, but for now we really needed to define the edge and protect the new plants from the potential of wandering stock.

A great job was done by Rob Brown of First Class Fencing (as expected) who very kindly gave us an exceptionally good price for what was an extremely difficult job. Every post had to be driven into bedrock to make fence secure. Not on easy job on a hot spring day.

Our next meeting will be focussed very much on the plants we want to grow and where we want to grow them. Join us Saturday 4th May – venue tbc.

TEMPORARY ROAD CLOSURE – C2169 TALLEY, LLANDEILO

A request has been received for the temporary road closure of the C2169 Talley, Llandeilo from a point ½ mile south-east of its junction with the B4302 for a total distance of 300 metres in a south-easterly direction.

The closure is necessary for Utility Services Ltd to replace B. T. Poles from 0800 hours Wednesday 1st May, 2019 for a period of 3 days.

The alternative route for north-west bound traffic will be to proceed in an easterly to south-easterly direction along the C2169 to its junction with the C2170. At the junction, turn right and continue in a south-westerly direction along the C2170 to its junction with the B4302. At the junction, turn right and continue in a north-westerly direction along the B4302 to its junction with the C2169. At the junction, turn right and continue in a south-easterly direction to return to a point north-west of the closure. Vice Versa for east bound traffic.

Garden project – planting in Easter holidays

Plant your beans and your sweetcorn

The community garden is hoping to get everybody together during the Easter holidays to plant up some beans, sweetcorn and some sunflowers. Time to start saving your pots.

We will confirm the date nearer the time.

We would also like your ideas and thoughts on the garden. There is a board up in the Reading Room, along with the comments book which we will use as a basis for a funding application.

We will also be doing a community consultation which will be available online in the very near future.
