Welsh Association of Youth Clubs
Welsh Association of Youth Clubs THE MOBILE YOUTH UNIT 1977 – 1980 Dennis Frost THE MOBILE YOUTH UNIT Background In the mid 1970s the Welsh Association of Youth Clubs, (WAYC) one of the foremost voluntary youth organisations in Wales, had a membership of 34,000 young people in 340 affiliated youth clubs encompassing church and chapel groups, village clubs, independent clubs, and local education authority youth centres. Established in 1934, and an autonomous division of the then National Association of Youth Clubs (NAYC) the WAYC is perhaps best described as a facilitating body. Its wide range of services incorporated training courses for leaders, potential leaders, and senior youth club members, festivals and competitions, members’ councils at local, county and national level, adventurous pursuits, and insurance schemes. An innovative organisation, among its several enterprises was the introduction of clubs for Physically Handicapped and Able Bodied young people (PHAB). Conceivably its most valued contribution at the time, and in keeping with its original concepts, was the advice and assistance readily available from members of staff who regularly visited affiliated clubs. The concern of the WAYC for the dedicated men and women who freely gave their time in the service of young people is perhaps reflected in a statement made at a meeting of the Executive Council when it was suggested that a simplified version of its aims and objects might be, ‘to support the untiring, and sometimes unacknowledged endeavours of individual youth workers by helping reduce their sense of isolation, and hopefully make their task a little easier’. Whilst the stated aim of the WAYC (1976) was focused on young people – ‘to help boys and girls to develop their physical, mental and spiritual capacities that they may grow to full maturity as individuals and members of society’, the suggestion served to confirm an awareness of the needs of youth workers, particularly those in the rural areas. -

A Welsh Classical Dictionary
A WELSH CLASSICAL DICTIONARY DACHUN, saint of Bodmin. See s.n. Credan. He has been wrongly identified with an Irish saint Dagan in LBS II.281, 285. G.H.Doble seems to have been misled in the same way (The Saints of Cornwall, IV. 156). DAGAN or DANOG, abbot of Llancarfan. He appears as Danoc in one of the ‘Llancarfan Charters’ appended to the Life of St.Cadog (§62 in VSB p.130). Here he is a clerical witness with Sulien (presumably abbot) and king Morgan [ab Athrwys]. He appears as abbot of Llancarfan in five charters in the Book of Llandaf, where he is called Danoc abbas Carbani Uallis (BLD 179c), and Dagan(us) abbas Carbani Uallis (BLD 158, 175, 186b, 195). In these five charters he is contemporary with bishop Berthwyn and Ithel ap Morgan, king of Glywysing. He succeeded Sulien as abbot and was succeeded by Paul. See Trans.Cym., 1948 pp.291-2, (but ignore the dates), and compare Wendy Davies, LlCh p.55 where Danog and Dagan are distinguished. Wendy Davies dates the BLD charters c.A.D.722 to 740 (ibid., pp.102 - 114). DALLDAF ail CUNIN COF. (Legendary). He is included in the tale of ‘Culhwch and Olwen’ as one of the warriors of Arthur's Court: Dalldaf eil Kimin Cof (WM 460, RM 106). In a triad (TYP no.73) he is called Dalldaf eil Cunyn Cof, one of the ‘Three Peers’ of Arthur's Court. In another triad (TYP no.41) we are told that Fferlas (Grey Fetlock), the horse of Dalldaf eil Cunin Cof, was one of the ‘Three Lovers' Horses’ (or perhaps ‘Beloved Horses’). -

ADDRESS Former Mid Wales Hospital, Hospital Road , Talgarth CONSULTATIONS/COMMENTS Consultee Received Comments Powys County The Cabinet considered a report on the potential Council Executive impact on Council services of a large scale Cabinet development proposal at the site of the former Mid Wales Hospital in Talgarth. The Cabinet was agreed on the need for a co-ordinated response and a constructive dialogue with the Brecon Beacons National Park Authority. Management Team would discuss the issue to ensure that there was a co- ordinated response from services. The Board resolved that the Leader responds on behalf of the Council as follows: Taking all matters into account, the Council is concerned that with the significant residential element proposed, the scheme is out of balance with the stated aims of BBNPA policy, which seeks to maximise and promote the economic reuse of the site for the benefit of Talgarth and wider area. -
National Assembly for Wales to Urge the Welsh Government to List Or Otherwise Protect Buildings of Note on the Former Mid Wales Hospital Site
P-04-365 Protect buildings of note on the Mid Wales Hospital site – Correspondence from Members of the public to the Committee William Powell AM Petitions Committee National Assembly for Wales Dear Mr Powell, The petition P-04-365, lead petitioner John Tushingham, “We call upon the National Assembly for Wales to urge the Welsh Government to list or otherwise protect buildings of note on the former Mid Wales Hospital site. Unlisted but in the Conservation Area they are an invaluable part of the architectural and social heritage of Talgarth.” is still under consideration. The committee has been extremely helpful in this matter for which I am most grateful. The Mid Wales Hospital is within the Talgarth Conservation Area and on the local list but I am wondering, in light of the renewed threat to the buildings, if it could be possible to ask Cadw to reconsider listing? A statement written by Judith Alfrey of Cadw 16 July 2012, in response to a request from SAVE, gives a brief assessment of the historic and architectural interest of the former Mid Wales Hospital, Talgarth, explaining the basis of the decision not to list, but setting out the understanding of where its interest lies. Three years have passed since this statement was made and Cadw’s website tells me: A key element of Cadw’s heritage regeneration activity is action related to heritage assets in a deteriorating condition. We have been working to identify the number and type of listed buildings at risk in Wales. Between 1840 and 1914, only buildings of a definite quality and character qualify (especially those which are the significant works of principal architects). -

Chapter V Educational Provision in Wales Part
CHAPTER V EDUCATIONAL PROVISION IN WALES PART (i) : SCHOOLS In medieval Wales it was the Church which assumed the greatest responsibility for schooling, bardic schools and possibly the households of the Welsh lords being also centres of learning. The English universities, and to a lesser extent, the continental universities and the inns of court, provided further or higher 1 education for the ablest talents of Wales. In England, by the late fifteenth and early sixteenth centuries, lay involvement in educati4n increased, as the needs of the Crown, the aristocracy and the towns expanded, and this was also faintly apparent in as scattered and 2 rural a society as Wales. The revival of classical learning emphasised anew the educational qualities required of administrators and all useful members of the state and which were also to be expected of gentlemen. At a time of social change, in Wales as in England, education became a 3 means of asserting and of reinforcing social distinctions. Neither the schools nor the universities were particularly suited 4 to the task of preparing young gentlemen. The newer grammar schools tried tEadapt, and there were a few signs that the universities and the inns of court, though still largely institutions of professional instruction, made some concessions towards providing a more general and 5 popular education. The essential conservatism of these places meant 6 that they were not in the van of intellectual progress. Rather, they were places for disseminating received and accepted truths intermixed with north European humanism and religious ideology, giving force to 333. 7 the ideal of wise and moral service and leadership. -

1V, Owen Glendower and the Welsh Fight For
3~19 /1V, g66I OWEN GLENDOWER AND THE WELSH FIGHT FOR INDEPENDENCE THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of the University of North Texas in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements For the Degree of MASTER OF SCIENCE By Phillip Eric Beims, B.A. Denton, Texas May, 1991 Rawl I Beims, Phillip Eric, OwenGlendower and the Welsh Fight for Independence. Master of Science (History), May, 1991, 133 pp., bibliography, 81 titles. Owen Glendower led the last military struggle of the Welsh against the English crown for Welsh independence and nationalism. The failure of the Glendower rebellion established the supremacy of English rule over Wales. For six hundred years the status of Wales as a principality of the crown has not been seriously challenged. This paper will show how widespread the idea of "Welshness" was in 1400 and how much support existed for Wales as an independent nation. Welshmen sought to move from the status of a medieval, tribal principality to a position of an independent nation capable and ready to stand with other national in the world. The role of leadership that Owen Glendower assumed in the final rebellion against the English king, Henry IV, lifted him from a popular Welsh prince to an historical legend.
