achievements of the charity,
identifying the difference the
charity’s work has made to
the circumstances of its
beneficiaries and any wider
benefits to society as a
whole.		 Para 1.20 The Theatre
has proved enormously
successful, with gigs and performances
taking place most weekends and many
events taking place in between, including
a wedding, several wakes, talks and
lectures, children and adult film clubs,
yoga and dance, Open Mike nights, public
meetings and private events. Local
volunteers have contributed significantly
and we have a wide range of support in
the local community. The bar team has
done amazing work, generating profit for
the Trust expenses.
Hay Meadows Festival
- The festival was
run for a second year on New Chapel Hill.
More than 300 attended - and groups of
schoolchildren benefitted from teaching
in the meadows in the preceding week.
Activities included scythe teams
demonstrating and allowing new
participants, working horses collecting
the hay, machinery demonstrations and
of land based projects locally, food and
drink stalls, child and adult activities
including, archery, hay doll making and
bushcraft skills. the whole site was
erected and bunting was made by
volunteers.
Apple Project
- Community Apple
pressing and processing were completed
in Llanidloes, Llandinam, Llangurig and
Elm Horticultural Site.
The Cafe
- Although challenging as it has
proved impossible to make a profit in its
current format, a change in March 2024
will hopefully reverse the situation.

Soup-er -sundays run throughout the winter months by volunteers offer free soup and bread & are well attended and are supported by activities like art groups, board games and live music. The cafe provides a meeting space for many groups, including Singing for Health, French Conversation, Friday Friends, Celf Able, Volunteer days, Sewing Group, Board Games Group. There are also impromptu events - seed sharing, live music, Punch & Judy. The Community Fridge has continued to pick up food from supermarkets daily for use of the local community from our fridges.
