There are 63 pupils between 4 and 11 years old on roll. Pupils are taught in three mixed-age classes.

  • The Official Newsletter of the Mid Wales Joint Committee for Health and Care Welcome…
    Spring 2019 Mid Wales Matters The official newsletter of the Mid Wales Joint Committee for Health and Care Welcome… In this edition you will find an update on our work over the past 3 months as well as lots of useful and important information about what is going on in your area. In January we held a Mid Wales Joint Committee meeting, kindly hosted by Gwynedd Council in their area offices in Dolgellau. Updates were received detailing the ongoing work, which is explained further on in this newsletter as well as news of a new lead Chief Executive for the Joint Committee and plans for an All Wales Rural Alliance. 1 Joint Committee Groups The sub-groups of the Joint Committee are now up and running and these are known as the Planning and Delivery Executive Group, Clinical Advisory Group and Public and Patient Engagement and Involvement Forum. Planning and Delivery Executive Group The Mid Wales Planning and Delivery Executive Group chaired by Carol Shillabeer, Lead Chief Executive for the Joint Committee, met on 13th December 2018. Representatives from Health Boards and Local Authorities were in attendance to discuss the development of the Mid Wales Ophthalmology Plan. Following detailed discussions it was agreed that this work be split into phases. The first phase is focusing on Mid Wales Community Primary Care Ophthalmology services for which two workshops have been held. These two workshops have brought colleagues together to share the current position, discuss how a Mid Wales approach could improve services and start the work on developing a draft plan for a Mid Wales approach which will be presented to the next Joint Committee meeting.

  • Integrated Medium Term Plan 2016-2019
    Integrated Medium Term Plan 2016-2019 Page 1 of 303 MESSAGE FROM CHAIR AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE Powys Teaching Health Board’s key purpose is to promote the health and well-being of the population and to provide and secure excellent healthcare services. This Plan sets out the key needs of the population and how we will anticipate and respond to these. Last year as a health board we set out our Plan (2015-18) to meet the population’s health and healthcare needs and following scrutiny by Welsh Government Ministers the plan was approved, demonstrating confidence that the needs of the Powys population had been taken into account and that the health board had the capability of delivering. This was a significant achievement for Powys Teaching Health Board, providing a platform for continuous improvement. Whilst the progress made will be detailed in other documents such as the forthcoming Annual Report of Powys Teaching Health Board, in summary, 2015/16 has been a very positive year. Good progress has been made in implementing the key actions we set out to achieve and the difference to patients and citizens is evident. General improvements in health indicators, improved access to local services, excellence in many service areas as judged by patients, greater engagement of staff in our collective work, increased integration with Powys County Council and a balanced budget all demonstrate the way in which we collectively have worked with partners and the public to keep improving. We would wish to take this opportunity to thank all involved for their commitment and hard work in making such a positive improvement.

Conclusions and Recommendations 132 Bibliography 138 ●Tourism Impact of Onshore Wind Farms in Wales ● Executive Summary Purpose of the Report i. Regeneris Consulting and The Tourism Company were appointed by the Welsh Government to carry out a study of the potential impacts of onshore wind farms and associated grid infrastructure on the visitor economy within Wales. This is a controversial and hotly debated topic. The issue has been brought into sharp focus by the potential for a fourfold increase in installed capacity by 2025, although in practice it may be much less than this. ii. The study has not sought to quantify the total economic impact on tourism, in terms of jobs and GVA, given the technical challenges of doing this in a rigorous way (but also given the available timescale for the study). The study has taken a bottom-up approach, which draws upon the existing evidence of tourism impacts of wind farms and identifies those areas which are likely to be most sensitive to wind farm development and those areas where the potential for positive effects is greatest.

It was one of several such assessments for the local authority areas of eastern Wales and ultimately ten reports were completed between 1992 and 1995, embracing the entire region for which CPAT had and retains a remit. The imperative that underpinned these surveys was committed to paper for the first time when Brecknock Borough was studied in 1993, being expressed in the following terms: It has long been recognised that development within town and village alike [might] disturb or obliterate significant information about the past, but a suitable response to a specific building development or other permanent land use change has usually been instigated, if at all, on an ad hoc basis.

  • Community No
    FINAL PROPOSALS Community No. 14 - GLANTWYMYN Introduction 1. The present community of Glantwymyn is located in north-western Montgomeryshire, and the community boundary is also the county boundary for much of its length. Its topography is defined by the valley of the river Dyfi and its tributaries, the afonydd Twymyn, Ffernant and Dulas, the latter forming the community and county boundary. These valleys are used by major regional routes, the A458, A470 and A487, which link mid, North and west Wales. The community is bounded by the Dyfi Forest in the north and by Mynydd y Cemais to the east. There are a number of settlements in this community, with Abercegir, Cemmaes, Commins Coch, Cwmllinau, Darowen, Esgairgeiliog-Ceinws, Glantwymyn / Cemmaes Road and Llanwrin all defined as small villages in the Powys Unitary Development Plan, and with Tal-y-wern, Brynmelin and Cwmllinau Uchaf defined as rural settlements. 2. The community has a population of 1,106, an electorate of 951 (2005) and a council of 15 members. The community is warded: Cemmaes with 364 electors and five councillors; Darown with 272 and four; Dulas with 147 and three, and Llanwrin with 168 and three. The precept required for 2005 is £6,000, representing a Council Tax Band D equivalent of £10.22. 3. In the 1986 Review, the Local Government Boundary Commission for Wales was anxious to reorganise and merge the seven former and very small communities of Bro Ddyfi to form viable new communities. The Commission was also anxious to examine the community boundaries closely to ensure that they accurately reflected the social communities of the area.
