Cymunedol Where did that year go? We have nearly reached the reckoning up stage of the calendar project, and now this issue is printed I can get on with that. It has been a long process. I would like to thank all the outlets who so very kindly took some for sale, as well as our printer, Jamprint, who printed them at cost, to support the cause. We will update you on the Debbie Ashton, funds raised in the next issue. Editor I notice more and more that there are always people around us, some really close and some further afield, who need help and support. It is incredibly heartening to see people in our communities who simply knuckle down and get stuck into whatever is needed to help, whether to support a neighbour in need, or knitting bootees for Koala bears or Joey pouches for the wildlife injured in the fires currently ravaging Australia. The sense of community and willingness to help, is fantastic. We still have the worst of the winter to come and so let’s remember to keep an eye open for neighbours who are living alone, particularly with all these viruses which are going around. If you haven’t seen someone for a day or two, and usually do, or in the event of power cuts, remember to knock the door to check all is ok, and they are able to keep warm. We are all so lucky to be living in this beautiful area, and to have the caring communities around us. Well done everyone! Thank you to all the new volunteers who so kindly came forward and are delivering to homes in Tywyn, Bryncrug and Dolgellau. We are now giving our advertisers even more value for money by delivering Contributors/ to more than 1000 more homes.
