You may have noticed changes being made to the former playing field in Pwllglas and the new equipment currently being installed. We have been very fortunate in obtaining a number of grants (list of funders below) which has enabled the community council to purchase and instal phase 1. We have installed equipment for intergenerational use, ie toddlers/teenagers/and the rest of us.
The ‘new’ park will be for all abilities including signage in braille, further equipment being installed late May or early June and then, if further funding bids are successful, a final phase.
We are very grateful to the following organisations for approving our bids and making this project possible
Cadwyn Clwyd, Brenig Wind Farm, National Lottery, Denbighshire County Council, DVSC, PACT/North Wales Police and Crime Commissioner
Please use the park, feel free to let us have your observations and any ideas you may have for its future.

Highways Department Denbighshire County Council undertaking works to improve one of the Public Rights of Way footbridges in your area.

Dyfed Powys Police have started to see a rise in ‘Courier Fraud’.
These frauds are predominantly aimed at those using landlines and those that will not question if the person at the other end really is who they say they are.
The current version of the fraud works by the criminal phoning the victim stating that they are a police officer and that they have someone under arrest for fraudulent use of their credit or debit card.
The criminal may state that the person in custody is a relative of the victim, and that the victim is under caution and cannot tell anyone else about the call.
The criminal will then go on to get the victim to either withdraw money for some spurious reason or gain details of their credit/debit card.
The reason it is called Courier Fraud is because the result is the criminal tells the victim that a courier will be collecting the money or card and PIN.
The courier will be the criminal – who will pretend to be a courier or the ‘police officer’ that spoke to the victim.
They will reassure the victim that the money will be held in safe keeping and be returned or refunded.
The reason for collecting the money will normally be that the bank has rogue staff that are putting counterfeit money in the withdrawals that people request.
I have attached a PDF which can be printed A3, A4 or A5 so can be used as a leaflet or poster, it is Welsh one side and English on the other.
The UK is currently in the midst of an unprecedented outbreak of Avian Influenza (AI) and the winter migration of wild birds to the UK means that the situation is likely to get worse before it gets better.
Surveillance of avian influenza suggests a heightened risk of Avian Influenza in Wales over the winter months. Therefore, from Friday 2 December, new compulsory biosecurity and housing requirements have been introduced for poultry and captive birds in Wales.
It is a legal requirement for all keepers to keep their birds indoors or otherwise separated from wild birds.
One way which backyard flock owners can be kept informed of the current situation and be advised of any cases in their area is to register their flock. They would also be provided with the latest advice and guidance on how to keep their flock safe.
We would be grateful if you could make your local community aware of how to register their flock, information on how to do this is outlined below.
We would also been grateful if the attached posters (Welsh and English) are placed in prominent positions within your community.
You must register poultry flocks of 50 or more birds that you own or are responsible for. We would strongly encourage those with less than 50 birds to register as well. They don’t have to all be the same species. This applies even if your premises are only stocked for part of the year.
You should register your poultry within one month of their arrival at your premises.
By email – Complete the registration form available at GOV.UK: Poultry (including game birds) – registration rules and forms (external website) and email it to customerregistration@apha.gsi.gov.uk.
There are guidance notes to help you complete the form. Welsh versions of the registration form and guidance notes are also available.
By phone – Ask for a registration form by contacting the GB Poultry Register Helpline on 0800 634 1112. Lines are open 8:30am to 5:00pm Monday to Friday.

Always remember:
The Royal British Legion, the UK’s largest charity dedicated to supporting the Armed Forces community, has today launched a new grant scheme for veterans and their families who are struggling to pay their energy bills. The initiative will provide non-repayable emergency grants of up to £2,400 a year (£200 a month), and is available across the UK.
It is with deep sadness that we have learned of the death of Her Majesty the Queen Elizabeth II.
We send our deepest condolences to all members of the Royal Family.
