Croeso Teifi Annual Report February 8[th] 2024-February 9[th] 2025
The first family continue to thrive in Cardigan. They have successfully applied for British Citizenship and we welcome this outcome. The father is working full time with a local builder; the mother is volunteering at Oxfam, giving some Arabic lessons and enjoying conversational English with Croeso Teifi friends. She has also started a three year full-time Hair and Beauty course. The children are thriving. Child number one plays football and rugby and child number two enjoys playing netball for the school.
Our second family have successfully applied for Indefinite Leave to Remain, and are looking forward to applying for British Citizenship. Father is continuing to build up his barber’s business in Fishguard. The children are happy and settled, the elder three bringing a lovely dimension to their primary school community.
This is the third year of resettlement in Cardigan for our third family and they are doing really well.
The father is still volunteering at repair cafes in St Dogmael’s and Newcastle Emlyn, volunteering at Barnardos, and has enrolled on the2 year part-time HNC Course, level 4, for Electrical and Electronic Engineering at Pembrokeshire college. With few paid work opportunities presenting themselves, the best way forward was for him to consolidate his already ample skill set with a British recognised qualification.
The first and third families were given notice to vacate their accommodation by early January of this year (2025). With available rented accommodation difficult to find, both families were lucky in that suitable premises came on the rental market at the end of November and early January. I am extremely grateful to the team who kept a close eye on any potential properties which came on the rental market and to those of us who were able to help with moving the third family.
With seemingly overwhelming stories of conflict on a world scale, we must celebrate our compassion in this corner of West Wales. Faith in humanity overrides those feelings of despair.
My thanks go to each and everyone who continue to support these three families. It is very rewarding to see them settled into life here in West Wales and I am sure that I speak for all of us when I say that the experience enriches us all.
