  • What Happy Museum Has Achieved Since Its Launch in 2011
    Happy Museum (HM) stimulates and supports museum practice that places wellbeing within an environmental and future-facing frame, rethinking museums’ role in creating more resilient people, places and planet. Through academic research, thought leadership, peer networking, advocacy, training and action, HM works directly with over 70 UK museums and impacted many more through events and an online presence which stretches globally. The Community of Practice’s vision for HM is of: A space to experiment with museum practice, through principles of care, inclusion and collaboration, in a critical time of change. What Happy Museum has achieved since its launch in 2011 Since 2011, and with investment from PHF, ACE, CyMAL and the Wales Federation of Museums, HM has: Funded creative interventions in 22 museumsi leading to individual development and organisational change (2011 - 14). Undertaken evaluation using the Story of Change taking learning from creative interventions and research to develop a set of common principles - see below. Created a suite of case studies, evaluation tools and resources for use by the wider sector with a re- launched website (happymuseum.org) to guide practitioners in How to Be a HM. In 2015 brought together 6 museumsii in an in-depth 5-year study into the impact of action research and peer learning on individual, organisational and community resilience. In 2017-8, recruited 17 Affiliateiii organisations to form an expanded Community of Practice, engaging c 200 participants from museum teams, volunteers, partners and communities with the HM principles, developing new practice and sharing learning through facilitated workshops and pairings. Held regular symposia bringing the Community of Practice alongside representatives from think tanks, NGOs and academia in fields such as energy, public health, economics, psychology and neuroscience.

  • First World War Commemorations in Wales: Planning for 2014- 2018
    Updated in July 2013 First World War Commemorations in Wales: Planning for 2014- 2018 Feedback from the 3 events held in January and February 2013 Contents 1. Introduction 2. Initial Stakeholder Planning Discussions 3. Roles of CyMAL: Museums, Archives and Libraries Wales and the Heritage Lottery Fund 4. The First World War Centenary Programme Board 5. The View beyond Wales 6. The Discussion Framework 1 Updated in July 2013 1. Introduction 1.1 The next few years will see a particular public focus on the commemoration of the First World War. This was a period of history that had an impact on every town, village and community across Wales with the loss of so many young men. Organisations throughout the nation are already considering how they can tell the stories of such a turbulent time. 1.2 The Welsh Government has instigated a stakeholder discussion on the planning process for First World War commemorations. The aim will be to reach as many individuals, groups, communities and organisations which have an interest in taking part in their own commemorations or working in partnership to develop joint activities. 1.3 Carwyn Jones AM, First Minister, has appointed Prof Sir Deian Hopkin to advise him and the Government on how Wales should prepare an appropriate and interesting framework of commemorative activities, exhibitions and events which will result in a lasting digital legacy for Wales. 2. Initial Stakeholder Planning Discussions 2.1 Three initial events were held in Cardiff on 22 January 2013, Llandudno Junction on 28 January 2013 and Builth Wells on 15 February 2013.

  • An Unintended Community in the Welsh Hinterland
    AN UNINTENDED COMMUNITY IN THE WELSH HINTERLAND Networks, Lifestyles, Relationships David Frost 2 An Unintended Community in the Welsh Hinterland - Networks, Lifestyles, Relationships Starting in the late 1970s, not long after I joined the urban exodus that saw significant inward migration to rural Wales, I kept a file of notes and observations on the situation and experiences of those around me who had moved to West Wales. Thirty years on, at the turn of the millennium, I made a summary and in this paper I discuss the main social trends that I identified at the time, adding additional and more recent material. Migration and social networks My earliest observation was that the migrants had come from many different, overwhelmingly urban, places and I pondered the reasons why they had moved to Wales; and whether, having assembled themselves in the hinterlands of Machynlleth, Aberystwyth, Tregaron, Aberaeron and Cardigan, they had become a community, albeit a loose-knit and spatially dispersed one. One reason for their migration seemed to be the persistence of the rural idyll, a romantic yearning for an idealised countryside, which I examined in my article for the Organic Grower Magazine, “Mud on the Tracks” (2016). Part of the rural idyll is the notion of community, and many writers have contrasted the community life of rural society with the supposedly atomised life of urban society. My search of the literature on rural communities led me to the conclusion however, that our 1970s migration to West Wales was a variant of what sociologists call intentional communities, which are also known as utopian communities.

  • The Relationship Between Iron Age Hill Forts, Roman Settlements and Metallurgy on the Atlantic Fringe
    The Relationship between Iron Age Hill Forts, Roman Settlements and Metallurgy on the Atlantic Fringe Keith Haylock BSc Department of Geography and Earth Sciences Supervisors Professor John Grattan, Professor Henry Lamb and Dr Toby Driver Thesis submitted in fulfilment of the award of degree of Doctor of Philosophy at Aberystwyth University 2015 0 Abstract This thesis presents geochemical records of metalliferous enrichment of soils and isotope analysis of metal finds at Iron Age and Romano-British period settlements in North Ceredigion, Mid Wales, UK. The research sets out to explore whether North Ceredigion’s Iron Age sites had similar metal-production functions to other sites along the Atlantic fringe. Six sites were surveyed using portable x-ray fluorescence (pXRF), a previously unused method in the archaeology of Mid Wales. Also tested was the pXRF (Niton XLt700 pXRF) with regard to how environmentally driven matrix effects may alter its in situ analyses results. Portable x-ray fluorescence was further used to analyse testing a range of certified reference materials (CRM) and site samples to assess target elements (Pb, Cu, Zn and Fe) for comparative accuracy and precision against Atomic absorption spectroscopy (AAS) and Inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (ICP-MS) for both in situ and laboratory sampling. At Castell Grogwynion, one of the Iron Age sites surveyed recorded > 20 times Pb enrichment compared to back ground values of 110 ppm. Further geophysical surveys confirmed that high dipolar signals correlated to the pXRF Pb hotspots were similar to other known Iron Age and Roman period smelting sites, but the subsequent excavation only unearthed broken pottery and other waste midden development.

  • ABERYSTWYTH DIGITAL HERITAGE WALK the Women's Heritage Walk Has Been Developed As Part of the Women's Archive of Wales '
    ABERYSTWYTH DIGITAL HERITAGE WALK The Women’s Heritage Walk has been developed as part of the Women’s Archive of Wales ‘Century of Hope Project’, funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund. The project marks the centenary of some women getting the right to vote in parliamentary elections, and this walk draws attention to some of the remarkable women who have lived in Aberystwyth during the last two hundred years, and to the man who contributed powerfully to the campaign for the vote.

Length of walk: approximately 90 minutes. Ability level: this walk should be accessible to all levels of ability. Route: Ceredigion Museum, Pier Street, Old College, Vulcan Street, Chalybeate Street, Portland Street, Alexandra Hall, The Prom, the Coliseum Theatre and Cinema, Ceredigion Museum. Follow the walk on an App. The Women’s Archive of Wales would like to thank Advancing Aberystwyth for working in partnership with us to develop the free digital app version of this walk. Search for ‘Aber App’ at the App Store or Google Play using your IOS or Android device. The App is free and available in Welsh & English. The Women’s Archive of Wales works to raise the profile of women’s history in Wales and to preserve the sources which tell their story. We organise all kinds of events to promote and celebrate the history of women in Wales.
