Clwb Silyn
By now, Clwb Silyn is nearly 2 years old, and still
going from strength to strength. They have been meeting
recently at the Hyfrydle Chapel because of the new extension
being built on the Community Centre. They have received
funding to enable them to buy a ‘Bingo’ machine,
indoors bowling set and also cutlery and crockery for
the club to be used in the community centre’s new
kitchen. They will also be staging a pantomime at Christmas.
Last month the BBC visited the club to record some members
reminisce about their early years in Talysarn. It was
very interesting reading the stories on the BBC web page.

Llys Llywelyn
Llys Llywelyn is still going strong with many events
taking place there. The committee is working hard in
raising local awareness by organising consultations and
had a local choir, Lleisiau Mignedd, there to sing last
month. It was a very enjoyable evening even though the
rain was pouring down outside! The refreshments that
followed was very enjoyable as usual.

Community Land Trust
The Dyffryn Nantlle Community Land Trust held a public
meeting on Monday 13 March 2006 to enable them to raise
awareness and get local backing to try and develop parts
of the land at Gloddfa Glai, opposite the playing field
in Talysarn, as land to build affordable housing for
local people.

Planning for Real
A Planning For Real training programme was held at Llys
Llywelyn at the beginning of March this year.
Eighteen local people took part in the programme, which
enabled them to have their say by building models of
the area in which they live. The group that took part
in the programme have agreed to hold a public consultation
in Talysarn and Nantlle by using the Planning For Real
methods. This will be a chance to see how your ideal
village would look like.
It is important for everyone to take part!

Glasfryn
Thirty-six young people spent a special evening at the
Glasfryn Centre, Y Ffôr, Pwllheli on Wednesday
8 March 2006.
The purpose of the evening was to gather information
and ideas in order to plan activities which would build
potential, develop skills and build confidence of the
young people.
Most of the evening was spent at the conference room
at the Centre where the youngsters had their say on what
they wanted and the evening was finished by having a
game of Ten Pin Bowling.
The workers who work with the young people were very
happy with the outcome and a follow up to the evening
has been arranged at the new Community Centre to enable
the workers to prioritise the ideas they collected on
the 15 April 2006.
