Llan-Maes Community Neighbours - Nextdoor App

Jacqueline WrightComment

I am aware several residents of Llanmaes have received a letter claiming to be from me Jackie Wright

The ‘Nextdoor’ app is genuine but has nothing to do with me neither do the letters

I have been in touch with the organisation who sent the letters of invitation out and requested strongly they send no more out in my name.

I apologise if this letter has upset any of my neighbours

LLANMAES LOCKDOWN QUILT

Jacqueline WrightComment

How would you like to own a piece of Village history?

During 2021 several ladies of the Village got together and made squares out of fabric which were put together and eventually formed a Quilt

There were 29 squares in total and it is now referred to as ‘LLanmaes Lockdown Quilt’ which can be seen hanging in the Village Hall. Each square depicts how these ladies and their families got through ‘lockdown’ and is accompanied by a write up of the story of how the lockdown quilt came into being

The Very Rev. Edwin Counsell blessed the Quilt on August Bank Holiday Monday after which the quilt was viewed by both Alun Cairns and Jane Hutt who were both very impressed by the story of how it came into being.

A booklet is now being printed depicting the image of the quilt with the story of every image

If you would like to own a copy of the booklet of the ‘History of the Lockdown Quilt’ at £15 per copy please contact:

All orders to be received no later than 28th January 2022
