## **Minutes of the Llanwrtyd and District Heritage & Arts Centre** 

## **6pm, Monday  22[nd] of September 2025** 

**Present:** Anthony Smith (Chair), Susan Price, Pat Jones, Lynne Brookes (Centre Manager), Catherine Ketteringham (Treasurer), Eifion Lloyd (Minute Secretary), Georgie Perrett, Sarah Jones, Lynn Ball, Peri Emirali, Lil Dempsey, Kath McCann Hywel Davies, Thea Pyne, Heidi Watts & Anwen Price. 

## **1. Apologies for absence** 

Gareth Davies & Harley Arnold. 

**2. Approval of the Minutes of the last AGM held on 2[nd] November 2024** They were read confirmed and signed as a correct record and there were no matters arising. 

## **3. Chairman’s Report** 

Anthony summarised his report, which is included in the AGM information pack. He commented it was another successful year, with approximately two thousand individual visits across the displays, gallery, events and talks. 

The presentation concluded with a heartfelt thanks to the Centre’s many enthusiastic, hardworking and dedicated volunteers and trustees for their efforts throughout the year. Without this collective engagement, it was concluded, the Centre could not be the valuable arts, culture and heritage asset that it has become for Llanwrtyd, its many visitors, and to the wider community of mid-Wales. 

## **4. Treasurers report** 

Catherine Ketteringham gave a full and comprehensive report. She noted that that the current account balance at the year-end was £6,989.76, with the balance of the Trevor Sutton Endowment fund £54,833. Income remained broadly in line with expectations with art sales, cake stalls at events and retail sales. The centre also continues to benefit from rental income from the chapel house property, which recently we welcomed new tenants. Catherine was thanked from the chair for all her hard work. 

## **5. Election and resignation of trustees** 

In line with the constitution of the Charity, two trustees required to resign and stand for reelection. Anthony stated that he felt that as the Chair, he should offer his resignation at each AGM, with the second resignation taken on a rotational basis by the remaining trustees. Anthony Smith and Sarah Jones therefore duly resigned and were re-elected as proposed by Pat Jones seconded by Lynn Ball. Anthony Smith will therefore continue as Chair for the year ahead.  The current trustees are therefore: Anthony Smith (Chair), Catherine Kettringham (Treaurer), Pat Jones, Sarah Jones, Susan Price, Georgie Perret, Roger Davies, Eifion Lloyd, Lynn Ball & Gareth Davies. 



## **6. Any other business** 

A question was raised from the floor as to how the centre promotes it’s activities and events. The Chair clarified that the Centre uses advertising in the Grapevine as this reaches every household in the Llanwrtyd area while also supporting another community organisation. We also use the Llandovery Post and distribute all news and advertising via our website and social media channels such as local FaceBook pages. 

The questioner suggested there should be a council-led notice board on the square and the railway station to promote the centre as well as other groups within the community. The trustees stated that they would support such a move with the Centre’s marketing in addition to our established channels, should the council decide upon such an initiative. 

There was no further business and the meeting concluded at 6.30pm.

LLANWRTYD & DISTRICT HEIUTAGE AND ARTS CENTRE

YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
Llanwrtyd & District Heritage and Arts Centre exists to record and promote the hisiory, culture and
heritage of this area of mid-W8les. Jt is housed in a sensitively renovated Congregational Chapel near
the centre of Llanwrtyd.
Ob ectives and Activities
l) The preservation. iinprovemcnt and maintenance for the public benefjt of the fonner congregational
chapel and gclynos graveyard in Ilanwrtyd wells, a landmark building and graveyard of historical,
religious, cultural and social significance, as a heJitagc and arts centre in a way that celcbratcs the
welsh culture.
2) The advancement of education for the public bencfit but not exclusively by the provision and
management of a heritage and arts centrc ihat will facilitate learning in th¢ hislory. geography, culture,
arts, and ¢nvironment of life in Ilanwtyd wells and surrounding areas.
When planning our activities, the trustees are mindful of the Charity Commission's guidance on public
benefit.
Chairman's Re
The year since the 2024 AGM h8s scen the Llanwrtyd and District Heritage & Arts Centre pursuing its
guiding charitable objectives of providing a focus and catalyst for the nurture, preservation and
celebration of the Welsh culture, social history, arts and the environment of Llanwrtyd and its
surrounding areas.
The Centre continues to attract visitors from both within the local cominunity as well as welcoming the
many iourists that visit the town, with a total of around two thousand individual visits in the year to
date.
Despite the ravages of 'nained' stomi Darragh which result¢d in many local events on the first weekend
of December being cancelled, our Christmas drop-in was extremely successful. With high winds, Iravel
disrnplion and power oulages on the Saturday, the decision was taken on the morning of the event to
postpone for a day. Our volunteers rallied round io ensure that the postponed drop-in was open lo visilors
for longer hours on thc Sunday, providing somewhere for locals to gather and shelter before the carols
on the square event. The atmosphere was so positive and welcoming that we have decided to follow thc
model of extended opening this year- ajbeit, hopefully with less tempestuous weather!
The gallery continues to attract significant numbers of visits to the Centre with its ¢ura¥ed rolling
progrdrnme of cxhibitions by individual artists and groups. In the year ahead we hope to reinstate the
art competition that has proven to be so successful in previous years.
Three musical events were prescntcd in the year, acmss a range of different genres. In April, we hosted
the comic pocket opera of Carnienco, a mix of Spanish-inspired rnusic, drama and comedy based
loosely around tlie Bizet opera. This was followcd by performances respectively by Welsh singer-
songwriter Kizzy Crawford in July and in October the contemporary Jazz haTP, violin and double bass
of the Bcn Creighton Griffilhs trio.

LLAIYWRTYD & DISTRICT HERITAGE AND ARTS CENTRE
REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
Reflecting upon one of the events of greatest cultural signifkcance to the rural Welsh-speaking
communities of ihe area, the Centre played host in September to a one-day exhibition and ihealrica
perforniance n]arking the 85 anniversary of Ihc Epynt clcarances of1940. In addition to a static display
covering ihe history, environment and current uses of the Epynl, two pcrforn]ances were presented of
Ihe onc-man play 'lowerth', relating th¢ story of a farn]er and his family evicted from their horne when
their land was requisitioned for thc military training area. Th¢ first perforn]ance was present￿ in the
Welsh language with a follow-up in English, logether attracting one of the largest audiences we have
cver seen in the Heritage Centre.
We are most grateful to Goodwins plc, tbe owncr of Llwynderw Hall, for the very generous sponsorship
of our talks programme over the next two seasons. This has enablcd us to reinvigorate our wintcr
programme. Already, we have commenccd a schedule some very interesting presentations on a range
of topical ihemes, including Dark Skies, Ihe history of the Drovers, and the Suffragette movement, each
month from September to March. In this way, Ihc Centre is able to further its educational and cultural
objectives, even throughout the winter months when ihe general displays and gallery are oiherwise
closed to visitors.
Finally, as ever, I could not conclude a review of a year in the life and work of the Llanwrtyd and District
Heritagc & Arts Centre without thanking our hardworking, enthusiastic and dedicated team of
volunteers and trustees, who commil thcir time and innovative ideas to its successful and smooth
running. Without this collective community effort, the Centre could not be the valuable arts, culture
and heritage asset that it has become for Llanwrtyd, its many visitors, and to the wider community of
mid-wales.
Aehievements and rformance
During the period of this report, the Centre conlinued to attract significant attendance numbers from
both the local community as well as the many tourists visititig Llanwrtyd.
In addition to the long-term intery)retive displays in the main hall on the history, heritage and culture of
Llanwrtyd and its sum)unding arcas, our curated rolling programme of exhibitions in the gallery area
as well as ihc musical events and talks, provide impetus for rnany repeat visits.
Jncome remains on broadly in line with expectations. with art sales and merchandising in the Centre's
retail area. aiid tlie sale of cakes and refreshTnents through stalls at the town's many events. The C¢Titre
also benefits from the rental income from th¢ fornier chapel house property. which provid¢s
considerable long-terni financial stability.
With the benefit of grant fundÈng received in 2024, the Centre has seen the instsllation of a modern,
more sustainable healing system based on air source heat pumps powered in part from a large array of
rooftop mounted solar panels and batteries. This has enabled the Centre to completely eliminate its
direct use of fossil fvels while increasing the utility of the building during tlie colder months of the year.
The Centre has also enjoyed partial grant funding for the replacement of the main doors, crealing a very
much more welcoming- and weathery)roof- entrance to the building.

Chairman's Re
The year since the 2024 AGM h8s scen the Llanwrtyd and District Heritage & Arts Centre pursuing its
guiding charitable objectives of providing a focus and catalyst for the nurture, preservation and
celebration of the Welsh culture, social history, arts and the environment of Llanwrtyd and its
surrounding areas.
The Centre continues to attract visitors from both within the local cominunity as well as welcoming the
many iourists that visit the town, with a total of around two thousand individual visits in the year to
date.
Despite the ravages of 'nained' stomi Darragh which result¢d in many local events on the first weekend
of December being cancelled, our Christmas drop-in was extremely successful. With high winds, Iravel
disrnplion and power oulages on the Saturday, the decision was taken on the morning of the event to
postpone for a day. Our volunteers rallied round io ensure that the postponed drop-in was open lo visilors
for longer hours on thc Sunday, providing somewhere for locals to gather and shelter before the carols
on the square event. The atmosphere was so positive and welcoming that we have decided to follow thc
model of extended opening this year- ajbeit, hopefully with less tempestuous weather!
The gallery continues to attract significant numbers of visits to the Centre with its ¢ura¥ed rolling
progrdrnme of cxhibitions by individual artists and groups. In the year ahead we hope to reinstate the
art competition that has proven to be so successful in previous years.
Three musical events were prescntcd in the year, acmss a range of different genres. In April, we hosted
the comic pocket opera of Carnienco, a mix of Spanish-inspired rnusic, drama and comedy based
loosely around tlie Bizet opera. This was followcd by performances respectively by Welsh singer-
songwriter Kizzy Crawford in July and in October the contemporary Jazz haTP, violin and double bass
of the Bcn Creighton Griffilhs trio.

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
YEAR ENDED 31 MARCH 2025
Reflecting upon one of the events of greatest cultural signifkcance to the rural Welsh-speaking
communities of ihe area, the Centre played host in September to a one-day exhibition and ihealrica
perforniance n]arking the 85 anniversary of Ihc Epynt clcarances of1940. In addition to a static display
covering ihe history, environment and current uses of the Epynl, two pcrforn]ances were presented of
Ihe onc-man play 'lowerth', relating th¢ story of a farn]er and his family evicted from their horne when
their land was requisitioned for thc military training area. Th¢ first perforn]ance was present￿ in the
Welsh language with a follow-up in English, logether attracting one of the largest audiences we have
cver seen in the Heritage Centre.
We are most grateful to Goodwins plc, tbe owncr of Llwynderw Hall, for the very generous sponsorship
of our talks programme over the next two seasons. This has enablcd us to reinvigorate our wintcr
programme. Already, we have commenccd a schedule some very interesting presentations on a range
of topical ihemes, including Dark Skies, Ihe history of the Drovers, and the Suffragette movement, each
month from September to March. In this way, Ihc Centre is able to further its educational and cultural
objectives, even throughout the winter months when ihe general displays and gallery are oiherwise
closed to visitors.
Finally, as ever, I could not conclude a review of a year in the life and work of the Llanwrtyd and District
Heritagc & Arts Centre without thanking our hardworking, enthusiastic and dedicated team of
volunteers and trustees, who commil thcir time and innovative ideas to its successful and smooth
running. Without this collective community effort, the Centre could not be the valuable arts, culture
and heritage asset that it has become for Llanwrtyd, its many visitors, and to the wider community of
mid-wales.
Aehievements and rformance
During the period of this report, the Centre conlinued to attract significant attendance numbers from
both the local community as well as the many tourists visititig Llanwrtyd.
In addition to the long-term intery)retive displays in the main hall on the history, heritage and culture of
