Llanddewi Brefi WI – 03/2016

News

An action packed programme has kept members busy . We all completed a Dementia Friendly Awareness session with villager Sally Corlett, now WI member, delivering a friendly and constructive presentation. Paul White our local postman shared with us his photos of Welsh Ruins, mainly “lost”mansion houses of Wales taken using a vintage camera, a beautiful item in itself. Steve and Shelagh Yeomans, Yr Efail Gardens, showed slides of their garden past , present and their aspirations for future development of their property, which is part of the Open Garden scheme. Our long standing member, Ann Jones, Chair of the Federations of Wales, told her story and experience of the Centenary Year at our Cawl Gwyl Ddewi at the New Inn, Llanddewi Brefi and had prepared beautiful flower arrangements for raffle.
We have started on our Embroidered Tablecloth Project and will unveil in September. Two teams were entered in the Book Quiz competition. The team reading the Welsh book, Veritas by Mari Lisa, came first in this Ceredigion Federation competition. As you see, such a varied programme ensures something to everyone’s taste. Meetings are held every 1st and 3rd Wednesday at the Community Centre at 7.30pm.. Why not give WI a go!

Post-16 and Spare Seat Provision
 – Home to School/College Transport Review

Notices

Overview

All councils in Wales continue to be affected by significant reductions to their funding as a result of the austerity measures put in place by the UK Government.

Ceredigion County Council needs to make savings of around £25 million over the next three years meaning fundamental changes will have to take place across services.

To deal with this budget gap the Council is reviewing all services and considering options to reduce expenditure and/or increase income by reconfiguring, cutting or reducing the services we provide.

The purpose of this consultation is to invite views on potential changes to school pupils’ travel to and from school/college and the introduction of a charge of £390 per annum for all post 16 students and pupils benefitting from spare seat provision and how the suggested changes to the policy will affect you and your family.

Please take this opportunity to have your say.
