The main consultation document provides further details on the assessment of local well-being for the Blaenau Gwent area. Mae’r ddogfen hon ar gael yn Gymraeg This document is available in Welsh Section 1: A welcome Welcome to Blaenau Gwent Public Services Board Summary of the draft Well-being Assessment 2016. The purpose of this document is to summarise the assessment of well-being which will help the newly formed Public Services Board for the area to set objectives for an exciting new plan for the local area. The draft assessment has been developed collaboratively with a wide of range of partner organisations contributing evidence. It also benefits from significant input from local people, following the first phase of our really successful engagement programme, “The Blaenau Gwent We Want”. If you are interested in further details please consider the main consultation draft, which is available via: http://www.blaenaugwentpsb.org.uk/ If you want to stay involved, I would urge you, or the organisation you represent, to join one of our engagement panels. Councillor Steven Thomas Chair of Blaenau Gwent Public Services Board Leader of Blaenau Gwent County Borough Council Section 2: Context The National Assembly for Wales passed a new law for Wales called the Well-being of Future Generations (Wales) Act 2015. The legislation is about improving the social, economic, environmental and cultural well-being of Wales, and creating a Wales that we all want to live in, now and in the future. The ground-breaking piece of legislation places sustainable development at its core and places a duty on our public service sector (covered by the Act) to: think about the long-term; work better with people and communities and each other; look to prevent problems; and take a more joined-up approach. This is known as the five ways of working. To make sure we are all working towards the same vision, the Act puts in place seven well-being goals for everyone to aspire towards. The Act also requires public body partners to work together through a new partnership board called a Public Services Board to prepare an assessment of well-being in its area by April 2017. 1 Section 3: Approaching our assessment in Blaenau Gwent The assessment of well-being for the Blaenau Gwent area presents a summary analysis. It includes: An introductory chapter focuses on providing an overview of the area, the main communities and the people that live within them. An economic well-being chapter, which summarises information on the local economy such as employment, business, income, education and skills. A social well-being chapter, which summarises information on a variety of social issues such as health, care, lifestyle, childhood development, ageing well, community safety, housing and transport. A cultural well-being chapter, which summarises information on issues such as Welsh language, cultural identity, cohesion, sports and recreation, arts and culture, tourism and technology; and An environmental well-being chapter, which summarises information on issues such as landscapes, nature, water, environmental footprints, renewable energy and waste and recycling. This summary version of the assessment follows the same format. 2 Blaenau Gwent People and Places Summary 3 Section 4: Blaenau Gwent Overview of the area Blaenau Gwent became a county borough council in 1996 following local government reorganisation, changing from a district of Gwent County Council. The area as a whole has a rich heritage which is reflected in our monuments, buildings, landscapes and people. In the last 30 years the area has faced many challenges, with the closure of all the coal mines in the late 1980s and the Ebbw Vale Steelworks in 2002 leading to many job losses. We cannot underestimate the effect of this, however the area has seen significant structural and environment improvement, following major levels of capital investment and the greening of our valleys as nature recovers from the long-term scaring caused from our historical industries. In 2015, the population of Blaenau Gwent was 69,544. This makes the area one of the smallest local authority areas in Wales. The population of the area is falling, however the rate of decline is more stable than at any point since 1921 (when the population was over 125,000). The population is expected to continue to fall with a 1.2% decrease in the next 10 years. The population density in Blaenau Gwent was 638 people per square kilometre, compared with 149 per square kilometre for Wales. Analysis shows that many parts of area have density levels similar to city areas. Blaenau Gwent, like the majority of places in the UK, has an overall population which is ageing. Generally, this is because less people are being born and those people that are alive are living longer. 28% of all people who live within Blaenau Gwent stated they had a limiting long-term health problem or illnesses, where day-to-day activities were limited. This was higher than Wales overall (23%) and was the 2nd highest level in Wales (behind Neath Port Talbot with 28%). 4 The Blaenau Gwent’s Black and Ethnic Minority population in 2011 was just under 1,900. However, the number had increased from 1,300 in 2001. The area has one of the lowest levels of people from black and minority ethnic groups in Wales. Just over 41% of the Blaenau Gwent population stated they have no religion, which is above the Welsh average of 37%. This is a notable increase compared to 2001, with respective levels of 25% and 19%. Blaenau Gwent is the area in Wales with the highest percentage of small areas in the most deprived 10% (23.4%). Neighbourhood Areas in Blaenau Gwent The assessment is focused around four neighbourhood areas which align to our valleys, towns and neighbourhoods. The map below summarises the four areas, with Sirhowy coloured red, Ebbw Fawr coloured blue, Upper Ebbw Fach coloured orange and Lower Ebbw Fach coloured green.

It is the largest town and the administrative centre of Blaenau Gwent county borough. Originally a rather insignificant spot in rural Monmouthshire with only about 120 inhabitants but at the end of the 18th century, Ebbw Vale—and the whole valley—was transformed by the Industrial Revolution. The Ebbw Vale Iron Works, later to become the Ebbw Vale Steelworks, opened in 1778, followed by the opening of a number of coal mines around 1790. At its height (1930s — 40s) the steel works in Ebbw Vale was the largest in Europe, although attracting very little attention from German bombers during World War II. By the 1960s around 14,500 people were employed in the works in and around Ebbw Vale, but the end of the century witnessed a massive collapse to the industry. A strike in 1980 was followed by closures and redundancies which resulted in the dismantling of many of the old plants. In 2002 only 450 were employed in the old industries, and by July of that year the final works closed. > Overview | Economy | Workforce Skills | Summary > Overview of Ebbw Vale Ebbw Vale Today The largest regeneration project in Wales is currently underway on the former Steelworks However, significant recent investment in Blaenau Gwent includes: site – including the opening of a new Learning Zone, Leisure Centre, housing, industry and The • Over £100 million for the Learning Works Scheme at The Gwent Archives.

  • December 2020 Newsletter
    December 2020 Newsletter End of Year Message from the Chairman Dear Fellow Choristers, Friends & Supporters, I think we can all agree that 2020 has not been a great year for the performing arts, and that it has been equally hard for hundreds of local choral organisations like ourselves’. But please spare a thought for the 7500 theatre and live event workers who have been made redundant, and the 170,000 jobs lost in the ‘live’ music sector. All this has taken place within the context of 62,000 Covid 19 deaths in England and Wales, and for our generation it is no comfort to learn that most of the loss and suffering has involved people aged 65 and older. Despite our ability to adapt to changed circumstance, it is terribly frustrating all the same that we are unable to meet up for practice evenings, and that our planned performances have had to be cancelled. Whilst this difficult time has allowed us to re-evaluate what is really important in our lives, I know of no chorister that feels any less passionate about singing, and its attendant benefits of health and comradeship. No doubt many of you have been following closely any new information that offers hope in relation to choral singing. Sadly, the scientists and politicians involved in scrutinising this area rarely consider age vulnerability or confidence levels. My own view is that our type of choir, and the audiences we attract, will not return until a vaccine is widely available. There is no escaping the fact we are enduring the longest period of suspension in our Choir’s proud history, but every member of the Management Committee is determined to do all we can to keep spirits lifted..
