Our communities are no different, and this is where Time Credits come in. If you give an hour of your time to your community, your community will thank you by giving you an hour back to spend on something you like to do. Everyone’s hour is worth the same and everyone gets thanked. There’s no limit to how many credits you can earn, and the more you earn the more you can spend. Time Credits never expire. There are lots of ways to earn Time Credits across your community, and hundreds of ways to spend them across the country. You can earn and spend in a way that suits you. Why? Because everyone has something to give, and ultimately, because a bit of time together makes all the difference. Carers or support workers are given free entry with anyone who has earned Time Credits and needs a bit of extra assistance. If you or someone you know or support have any specific accessibility needs, please call our friendly partners before visiting, they’ll be happy to help. We do not provide the services and activities where you can earn Time Credits or the activities where Time Credits can be spent, and so we accept no liability for the quality, adequacy and availability of such services or activities. All the great ways to spend your Time Credits you see in this brochure are provided by businesses, councils and community groups. They do not receive any payment for providing these opportunities. We think you’ll agree that’s rather nice of them, so let them know if you enjoyed their activity, and feel free to tell them how you earned your credits. If you have problems with any of the opportunities listed, get in touch with us straight away so we can chat to these helpful partners of ours and iron things out. 3 Contents 06 The Team HEALTH AND WELL-BEING 08 Carmela Gianfagna Shiatsu 09 Coleg Gwent City of Newport Campus 10 Coleg Gwent Crosskeys 11 Coleg Y Cymoedd 12 PJD Aromatherapy 13 Style Studio 14 Acu Cardiff 15 Samye Foundation Wales LEISURE AND SPORT 16 Cragfit 17 Better Leisure Centres 18 Better Leisure Centres 19 Bokwa Classes 20 Boulders 21 Caerphilly County Borough Council Leisure Services 22 Caerphilly County Borough Council Leisure Services 23 Cardiff Council Leisure 24 Cardiff International Pool 25 Central Explosion Cheerleading Classes 26 Ice Arena Wales 27 Legacy Leisure Centres 28 Legacy Leisure Centres 29 Pillgwenlly Millennium Centre 30 RCT Leisure 31 Rhondda Golf Club 32 Spot Climbing 33 The WOD House Functional Fitness Centre 34 Cardiff Ski & Snowboard Centre 35 Energise Health & Fitness Centre 36 The Gym Cardiff 37 The Gym Newport 38 Newport Live 39 Valley Gymnastics Academy PLAY AND RECREATION 40 Newport County AFC 41 Cardiff Devils 42 Newport Gwent Dragons 43 Principality Stadium 44 Spit & Sawdust Skate Park 45 Glamorgan Cricket 4 Look out for the coloured icons.

  • A Study Into the Material Culture of the Morgan Family of Tredegar House
    A Study into the Material Culture of the Morgan Family of INTRODUCTION Tredegar House in the late-Seventeenth Century There are many reasons why people wanted to own material goods, some practical, some financial, some psychological. This makes it necessary to explore social as well as economic factors. 1 Becky Gingell As Lorna Weatherill’s comments above, there are a variety of ways in which the study of material culture can be examined, as well as a number of reasons for such an investigation. The study of material culture can provide a vivid insight into the past, and a vast amount can be discovered about the individuals who owned the household goods. The ability to purchase new items was obviously determined by the person’s financial background and whether they were a spendthrift by nature, or perhaps less inclined to use their wealth, ranging from practical necessities of the household to the accumulation of personal niceties, to the more fundamental psychological reasons for owning such goods – desire and emulation. The Morgan family of Tredegar has had a long association with the county of Monmouthshire dating as far back as the fifteenth century and finally ending in the twentieth century when the house was finally sold. Each member of the Morgan family was famous during their lifetime and several grew to be significant entrepreneurs, while others became renowned for their eccentric behaviour. What this study will concentrate upon is the ownership of Tredegar House during the late-seventeenth century and the way in which the estate was run coinciding with the material culture of the owners during this period.
