Llanmaes - Paths for People

Andy HigginsComment

LLANMAES – PATHS FOR PEOPLE

 The Community Council are interested in setting up a “Rights of Way” Group within the village to protect and promote local footpaths.  The statutory duty to protect these paths rests with the highway authority, but local councils can play an important role in ensuring the paths are fit for use.

The aim of the group will be to carry out regular inspections (at least twice a year) of the paths in and around the village.  In consultation with the VOGC, possibly carry out basic maintenance work.  Check stiles and gates.  Ensure rights of way are signposted.  Perhaps organise regular walks for local residents.

 

For further information please contact Cllr Keith Lewis,

24 Tyle House Close, Llanmaes.  Tel: 01446 796106

South Wales Three Peaks Trial

Andy HigginsComment

Laura McGreevy (of Llanmaes Social Committee Easter Bunny Hunt fame) is taking on the challenge of the South Wales Three Peaks Trial on Saturday, April 2nd. She will be accompanied by her husband Eamonn and friend Roger.

This is a gruelling 20 mile hike, encompassing three mountains and 1,500 metres of ascent, and will take approximately 10 hours.

Laura is hoping to raise £500 for Emmaus South Wales, the charity which supports formerly homeless people in Wales.

You can view the charity profile at the link below, and if you wish, make a donation towards the ongoing work of Emmaus South Wales.

Important: Llanmaes Easter Egg Hunt 2016

Andy HigginsComment

Unfortunately the Llanmaes social committee are unable to provide an Easter Egg Hunt this year, as due to work and other commitments we do not have any volunteers available to coordinate this event on Easter Monday. It is a great pity that such a popular event has had to be cancelled and we would urge anyone who might be able to give some time to the Llanmaes Village Social Committee to please get in touch. Please get involved so that we are all able to continue to offer and enjoy a programme of village events in the future! If you would like to get involved and help where or when your able to, please email llanmaessocial@gmail.com

Burton - "a live act at the Llanmaes Village Hall performed by Rhodri Miles"

Andy HigginsComment

A reminder that tickets are available for the acclaimed stage play Burton at Llanmaes Village Hall, October 23rd at 7pm for 7:30pm start. This is not a Cinema documentary. Rhodri Miles (Richard II-Hollow Crown, Torchwood and Game of Thrones) vividly presents the life of the great Welsh actor from humble beginnings to Hollywood mega-star. Beautiful women, alcohol, wealth, stage and screen are the threads woven into this sad, happy, exuberant, often hilarious one-man show.

The show received critical acclaim at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival 2009 and also Hollywood Fringe Festival 2010, where the play won 'Best International Show'. 

To buy your tickets please click here to contact the Llanmaes Social Committee, or call Jackie on 07976698325.
