Canolfan Llwynihirion Brynberian Chairman's Report for October 20231 October 2024 Events Another busy year for us at the Canolfan starting in October with Night Out via Arts Council of Wales Milly Jackdaw Story Telling. We held a quiz night in November and in December there was a willow workshop. We also held our annual c.hristmas concert in December with many taking part with poems, readings and various items, and community Carol singing with mulled wine and mince pies. Father Christmas joined us and gave a present to all children who attended. Donations for the evening went to Pembrokeshire Association for the Homeless. We held a Bingo session in January to raise money towards the cost of our annual Eisteddfod and Barclays Bank kindly match funded this. Our annual Eisteddfod was held in February this yearly tradition is so important for the community and local schools are well represented. In May there was a Herb workshop, and also a week long Art exhibition by local artists with a volunteer run cafe with over 16 volunteers ! A pollinator party was held in June which was very well attended again with a volunteer run cafe, this was partly.supported by Cwm Arian and Eglwyswrw Community Council. In July our Trasure Hunt took place and the finishing line was Llwyngwair Manor where bar meals were provided for those who requested them. In August our Horticultural Show took place which again was well attended. And in September the first of a monthly cafe run by volunteers to help fund towards garden expenses. Donations We receive donations via Local Giving and also have a 100 Club Lottery which is very important and has been going for many years.

We also hold Management Group meetings every 4 weeks Trustees meeting 6-8 weeks We are able to employ co-ordinator for 8 hours per week to take bookings, produce invoices, create posters, post on social media and keep the community informed of events via e- mail.
We have held community meals every fortnight between November 2023 and March 2024 the attendance has varied between 20 - 35 people. There is a Welsh learners class held during term time with at least 12 attending weekly. We also had Hedd Ladd Lewis holding History of Wales courses every fortnight between February and April 2024. And there is a Biodiversity group that meet occasionally. I would like to take this opportunity to thank all fellow Trustees, Management group and all the faithful volunteers that make the running of this Canolfan possible. It was another busy year in the Community Garden. In November in poUrig rain we officially dedicated the Peace Flame. We held a couple of well attended Work Days to ready the Garden for community events which included another popular & profitable Pollinator Party & Cafe in June. In July, after much discussiorL we acknowled2ed that the garden was established and now required regular maintenance skills. We proposed to the Canolfan Mana%ement Group that we should employ a professional gardener for a few hours each month and that we would fund this development by running a Friday Cafe once a month. We held the first cafe in September and the gardener Dave Cook did his first half day of work i the Garden. We will be monitoring how this goes. We'd like to thank the Canolfan and the community for their ongoing supporL
