Cymunedol Well, I can hardly believe it is 10 years, next issue (Oct/Nov) since I started to publish Sibrydion. I am hoping to publish a calendar for 2020, (it is too late now for 2019, as in this low population, tourist area – I feel we need to have the entire season to sell a calendar for the following year) to take full advantage of the presence of visitors to the area and maximise sales and funds raised. The vision is to refl ect the local area, so I am looking for photos from readers, Support us in aid of: of subjects throughout our distribution area, which is right round the coast from Porthmadog down to the Dyfi Valley to Machynlleth, and also along the Mawddach Valley and across to Bala, from Dolgellau. Profi ts from sales of the calendar will be shared with Aberdyfi Search & Rescue, the RNLI, and Air Ambulance Wales, all crucial services to us in this area, so please support this competition. Non-professional photographers are invited to submit entries of photos, and you must ensure you have a high-resolution (minimum 300dpi) fi le for it. Keep this safe, and if your photo is selected for printing, you will be asked for the hi-res version.

You can send your entries an A5 print, to me by post to: Bod Idris, Llwyngwril, LL37 2JB, giving your name, postal address, email address, and a phone contact number (landline and/or mobile). Give a title for your picture and state where you took the photograph. Your details will be stored securely, and will only be used in relation to this competition. Please include the entry fee with your photograph. Cheques payable to: Sibrydion Cymuned. The best photo will have pride of place on the front of the calendar. I look forward to seeing your entries. Let’s raise some funds for these crucial local ABERDYFI charities, which save many lives in the area, visitors and locals alike. So look back at your photos or get snapping.
