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: Culture and Identity Rugby and Welsh Identity
    Wales: Culture and identity Rugby and Welsh identity Gareth Williams I think Welsh rugby has a fairly unique nature certainly within the UK and possibly even at a worldwide level. There has from – almost from the very beginning been a strong, working class presence in the game in Wales, certainly started in the 1870’s and 1880’s when the game arrived in England from the English public schools and universities and it initially made an impact at the public school Llandovery, Lampeter college, Brecon College, at that level in Wales but in less than a decade it spread out into the society which was at that point undergoing massive population increase, related to that massive industrialisation. So you have a new workforce which is anxious to assert itself and it will take to the game of rugby for a variety of reasons. But from the very beginning therefore certainly by the time when Wales won the first rugby triple crown when they beat the other three countries, England, Scotland and Ireland, for the first time in 1893, there was a strong working class complexion to the Welsh National Fifteen which marked it out as different from the other national sides, which were predominantly middle class and professional men, not professional in the playing sense but they were financially independent. They were doctors, accountants, surveyors and so forth. I think then there's a distinctive characteristic to Welsh rugby, which was resented, it must be said, by the other home unions. They thought that Wales was was acquiring unfair advantage by the fact that they were coal miners and steelworkers and dock workers, but particularly coal miners, in their side who were using the skills of their work at play in ripping the ball out of mauls, physical strength.

For an organisation to become a KAM client they must be a third sector not for profit organisation that falls into one of the following 3 categories: Existing social enterprises that have the potential to grow, be sustainable and create employment Emerging projects that have the potential to create jobs Third sector organisations that deliver vital services within our communities Project The project is to create a multipurpose community facility that is Description accessible to all, It is evidenced that providing a facility that harnesses the virtues of sport and community engagement, also participation, has a direct correlation in respect of improved community cohesion and long-term sustainability. Llandeilo Rugby Club was formed in 1871 and in 2021 will be celebrating 150 years of its existence and but for a few years during the Second World War the game has been an integral part of the town and its surrounding communities. Indeed, it was only in 1866 that the first recorded game of Rugby was played in Wales between Lampeter College and Llandovery College, and of course they are founder members of the Welsh Rugby Union, and they are in the planning stages of how to celebrate this important milestone.
