We have received this from Powys Association of Voluntary Organisations (PAVO) which we think the residents of the Gwernyfed Community might be interested in.

Dear all,

Thank you for taking part in your local Community Conversation last year. It was great to have you involved and to hear what matters most to people in your area.

Your time, ideas and local knowledge played an important role in shaping the priorities that came out of those discussions.

We’re keen to make sure that local voices continue to be represented, to keep the momentum going, and to build on the connections already made. With that in mind, we’d love to invite you to a follow-up meeting.

Location	Date	Time	Venue
Builth Wells	12/01/26	6pm – 8pm	Groe TIC
Talgarth	13/01/26	6:30pm – 8:30pm	The Town Hall, Talgarth
Crickhowell	14/01/26	4pm – 6pm	Clarence Hall
Hay	19/01/26	6pm – 8pm	The Hay Bowling Club
Brecon	22/01/26	12pm – 1pm	Y Gaer

This session will be an opportunity to revisit the themes from the previous conversation, explore what’s happened since, and work together on shaping the next steps.

We’ll also share information about additional resources and support that may be available through the project to help take ideas forward and keep the conversation going.

Please take a moment to complete this short form to let us know whether you’re able to attend, or if you have any questions ahead of the meeting. Refreshments will be provided. https://bit.ly/CommunityConversations-January

We really look forward to seeing you there.
