Drawing a parallel from his experience as a member of the Broadcasting Council for Wales, he said that we must have ways of judging success. Broadcasters judge programmes by their quality, the number of people who are attracted to them, and by their ability to make a difference. The Church has something to learn from this.

  • 'Wales' African Twin' by Paul Williams
    Wales’ African Twin The story of Dolen Cymru - the Wales Lesotho Link Paul Williams Author’s note It is a privilege to have been involved with Dolen Cymru – the Wales- Lesotho Link – since its inception. And it was a special privilege to have been charged with keeping the records since those very first informal meetings in 1983. I continued, as Secretary, to keep the records of the link until the Spring of 2004. I would like to record my sincere thanks to Dr Carl Clowes, who first suggested that I write this book. He has been a constant source of inspiration and encouragement. As well as writing the foreword, he has given the manuscript a thorough edit, adding fresh insights and up-dated material. I would also like to thank my wife Elizabeth for her support, proof- reading and sensible suggestions. As Secretary of the link, I have had the opportunity of working with wonderful colleagues, many of them serving on different Dolen committees and filling different posts, both in Wales and in Lesotho. They are too numerous to list here (some, but not all, appear in the text), but I would like to offer my deepest thanks and appreciation to all of them. Without their selfless and enthusiastic contribution, there would be no story to write.
