Brassed Off does have all the elements that we are accustomed to with Just Good Friends – professionalism, music, humour – but the background to this play is much darker. Originally a film starring Pete Postlethwaite, Ewan McGregor and Stephen Tomkinson, it was adapted for the stage by Mark Harman. Billed as a comedy drama, it is based on the true story of the mining village of Grimsdale in the aftermath of the 1984/85 miners’ strike. Be prepared to have your heartstrings pulled. There are laughs, sadness, loss and victory, romance, political stitch-ups. Those of us of a certain age will remember the tragedy of the miners’ battles with Margaret Thatcher’s government. The repercussions can still be felt in mining communities everywhere, whether in South Yorkshire or South Wales. Sian Morris has handed the directorial baton to her son-in-law, Jean-Paul (King Arthur in Spamalot) while her two older grandchildren, Dylan and Harriet, have now joined the cast; it was only a matter of time! Music is provided by the brass section of the Carmarthen Symphonic Wind Band. I’m not sure what a flugelhorn is, but it’s an important component in the ensemble. Gloria is allowed to join the brass band because of her expertise with this instrument, in spite of the fact that she is working for the opposition – the National Coal Board. A departure from the usual offerings of Just Good Friends, we will still be guaranteed an evening of professional entertainment of the standard we have learned to expect from this group.

  • Dyfed Final Recommendations News Release
    NEWS RELEASE Issued by the Telephone 02920 395031 Boundary Commission for Wales Caradog House Fax 02920 395250 1-6 St Andrews Place Cardiff CF10 3BE Date 25 August 2004 FINAL RECOMMENDATIONS FOR THE PARLIAMENTARY CONSTITUENCIES IN THE PRESERVED COUNTY OF DYFED The Commission propose to make no change to their provisional recommendations for five constituencies in the preserved county of Dyfed. 1. Provisional recommendations in respect of Dyfed were published on 5 January 2004. The Commission received eleven representations, five of which were in support of their provisional recommendations. Three of the representations objected to the inclusion of the whole of the Cynwyl Elfed electoral division within the Carmarthen West and South Pembrokeshire constituency, one objected to the name of the Carmarthen West and South Pembrokeshire constituency and one suggested the existing arrangements for the area be retained. 2. The Commission noted that, having received no representation of the kind mentioned in section 6 (2) of the Parliamentary Constituencies Act 1986, there was no statutory requirement to hold a local inquiry. The Commission further decided that in all the circumstances they would not exercise their discretion under section 6 (1) to hold an inquiry. Final recommendations 3. The main objection to the provisional recommendations was in respect of the inclusion of the Cynwyl Elfed electoral division in the Carmarthen West and South Pembrokeshire constituency. It was argued that the division should be included in Carmarthen East and Dinefwr on the grounds that the majority of the electorate in the division fell within that constituency and that inclusion in Carmarthen East and Dinefwr rather than Carmarthen West and South Pembrokeshire would reduce the disparity between the electorates of the two constituencies and would bring them closer to the electoral quota.

  • Carmarthenshire Revised Local Development Plan (LDP) Sustainability Appraisal (SA) Scoping Report
    Carmarthenshire Revised Local Development Plan (LDP) Sustainability Appraisal (SA) Scoping Report Appendix B: Baseline Information Revised Carmarthenshire Local Development Plan 2018 - 2033 1. Sustainable Development 1.1 The Carmarthenshire Well-being Assessment (March 2017) looked at the economic, social, environmental and cultural wellbeing in Carmarthenshire through different life stages and provides a summary of the key findings. The findings of this assessment form the basis of the objectives and actions identified in the Draft Well-being Plan for Carmarthenshire. The Assessment can be viewed via the following link: www.thecarmarthenshirewewant.wales 1.2 The Draft Carmarthenshire Well-being Plan represents an expression of the Public Service Board’s local objective for improving the economic, social, environmental and cultural well- being of the County and the steps it proposes to take to meet them. Although the first Well- being Plan is in draft and covers the period 2018-2023, the objectives and actions identified look at delivery on a longer term basis of up to 20-years. 1.3 The Draft Carmarthenshire Well-being Plan will focus on the delivery of four objectives: Healthy Habits People have a good quality of life, and make healthy choices about their lives and environment. Early Intervention To make sure that people have the right help at the right time; as and when they need it. Strong Connections Strongly connected people, places and organisations that are able to adapt to change. Prosperous People and Places To maximise opportunities for people and places in both urban and rural parts of our county.
