    THE CITY AND COUNTY OF CARDIFF, COUNTY BOROUGH COUNCILS OF BRIDGEND, CAERPHILLY, MERTHYR TYDFIL, RHONDDA CYNON TAF AND THE VALE OF GLAMORGAN AGENDA ITEM NO THE GLAMORGAN ARCHIVES JOINT COMMITTEE 18 March 2016 REPORT FOR THE PERIOD 1 December – 29 February REPORT OF: THE GLAMORGAN ARCHIVIST 1. PURPOSE OF REPORT This report describes the work of Glamorgan Archives (GA) for the period 1 December – 29 February. 2. BACKGROUND As part of the agreed reporting process the Glamorgan Archivist updates the Joint Committee quarterly on the work and achievements of the service. Members are asked to note the content of this report. 3. ISSUES A. MANAGEMENT OF RESOURCES 1. Staff Maintain establishment This is the first full quarter with the reduced Access Team. Matthew Coleman’s hours have been extended to help fill the gap while establishment staff are also stepping in until a more stable solution is finalised. With a smaller Management Team and a professional team temporarily reduced by maternity leave it has made sense to combine meetings into a Management Circle. Continue skill sharing programme During the quarter 46 volunteers and work experience placements contributed 1283 hours to the work of the Office. Of these, 28 came from Cardiff, 9 from the Vale of Glamorgan, 6 from Bridgend, 2 from Rhondda Cynon Taf, and 1 from Caerphilly. Tours were provided 7 prospective volunteers and references for work supplied for 2 former volunteers. Students on work experience placements have given positive feedback. Work continues on a range of volunteer projects as outlined in the previous quarter. Volunteers have also started looking at Women’s Institute scrapbooks in more detail.

  • The Gatehouse 
    The Gatehouse This is the entrance to Abergavenny Castle, it is called the Gatehouse. It is a barbican gatehouse . A barbican was a wall or tower which protected a castle from attack. The Gatehouse today When Abergavenny Castle was first built, over 900 years ago, the gate was just a simple opening in the castle walls. Castle entrance in about 1087 Castle with Gatehouse in about 1300 Illustrations by Michael Blackmore Walk through the Gatehouse and loolookk closely at the walls around and above you. What can you see? Abergavenny Castle Trail The Gatehouse On the first floor above the gate were comfortable rooms for the Constable of the Castle and his family to live in. The Constable was in charge of the Castle when the Lord was away. The room had a fireplace, large windows and access to the walkways along the walls, as well as a winch to lower or raise the drawbridge.

Can you spot any holes where the huge metal door hinges might have been? We think that this stone-built Gatehouse was added about 600 years ago.

  • Happy Museum Press Release 3Rd Round
    PRESS RELEASE HAPPY MUSEUM The groundbreaking Happy Museum announces a third round of awards as part of a wider programme funded by Arts Council England’s Renaissance Strategic support fund and CyMAL, Wales. 10 museums and galleries from England and Wales have been selected to show how museums can support the transition to a high well-being, sustainable society - bringing the total of Happy Museum Commissions to 22. Launched in April 2011, the Happy Museum ProJect is a pioneering programme that looks at how museums in the UK can build links between sustainability and well-being to leave a legacy of long- term cultural change within their organisations and communities. An initial first round of six awards in 2011, followed by another six in 2012, demonstrated that the Happy Museum Manifesto was in step with the increasing number of academics, economists, psychologists and ecologists in identifying the vital linkage between sustainability and wellbeing. The practical work of the Happy Museum commissions helps to shed light on how thinking of these two issues in conJunction might offer the key to providing a better future. This third phase of Happy Museum commissions is launched with awards of over £100,000 and explores how museums build deeper dialogues with their local communities; engaging young people in understanding science, climate change and sustainability; strengthening community resilience through combining comedy and heritage; a community co-designing and ‘fitting-out’ the ground floor of a Silk Mill; inspiring children with creative play and craft; making an abbey a place that encourages environmental good practice and wellbeing and promoting social enterprise through traditional crafts.

  • Draft: for Testing Purposes January – February 2019
    Draft: for testing purposes January – February 2019 Draft: for testing purposes January – February 2019 Draft: for testing purposes January – February 2019 This journey checker sets out where steps contribute to the other well-being goals, using the icons set out below: Link to goals / ways of working Prosperous Resilient Healthier Equal Community Cohesion Culture and Welsh language Global Involvement Supporting the Welsh language Contributing to the Welsh Government’s ambition of 1m Welsh speakers in Wales by 2050 through developing opportunities to utilise the language, cultivating skills and nurturing greater awareness and appreciation of the benefits of being part of a multilingual nation Defining the issue: According to the census statistics, the number of Welsh speakers overall has fallen from 582,000 in 2001 to 562,000 in 2011, despite an increase in the size of the population, indicating that just 19% of the population are Welsh speakers. This is far short of the Welsh Government’s target of 1m Welsh speakers by 2050. Recent Canadian research demonstrates the value of bilingualism to not only the economy but to individuals through cognitive and social benefits. We need to find ways to improve the perception of the language, make it an inherent part of who we are in Wales and give people every opportunity (where they want it) to learn, maintain and develop their personal language skills. The Public Services, as the largest employer in Wales, has a huge contribution to make to this agenda and to making it possible for the Welsh Government to meet its ambitious target that will ultimately strengthen Wales’s identity and uniqueness.

    Background Amgueddfa Cymru – National Museum Wales was established by Royal Charter in 1907. The Museum receives its core funding through grant-in-aid from the Welsh Government as a Welsh Government Sponsored Body. Its Charter objective is ‘the advancement of the education of the public’ involving developing, caring for, studying and sustaining access to Wales’s national museum collections for the benefit of society in perpetuity. Amgueddfa Cymru’s Vision, published following significant internal and external discussion and consultation, is to become ‘a world class museum of learning’ and we believe that we are well on our way to delivering this ambitious commitment. For the context of this submission, it is important to note that Amgueddfa Cymru is a provider of a broad range of arts and cultural activities relating to art, history, science, music, drama, creative- writing, dance, photography and these all include elements of active participation. Through the leading role the Museum plays in this cultural and heritage provision, education, skills and tourism, we make a positive contribution to the social and economic life of Wales. With over 450,000 formal and informal education visits, Amgueddfa Cymru also provides many routes into life-long learning and training - all of which are crucial at a time of financial constraint.
