🚨 YOUTH DROP-INS – WEEK 4 🚨

Final taster session next week! 💥

We’ve had a great few weeks with young people coming down to chill, have a laugh and get competitive with pool, table tennis and darts – plus some good food along the way 🙌

If you’re aged 11–17 and haven’t been yet, Week 4 is your last chance to come along and see what it’s all about. Bring a mate and join in 👊

💬 We’ll also be asking the young people for their thoughts:
📝 What they’ve enjoyed
💡 What they’d like to see in the future
🏘️ Whether they’d like these sessions to become a permanent thing in the community

Your feedback could help shape what happens next – and we’d love to keep this going if there’s enough interest.

📍 Location:Pencader Family Centre
📅 Day: Tuesday March 17th
🕒 Time: 4pm-6pm
👥 Ages: 11–17

Who’s coming along for the final session? 👀
Tag a friend who should come with you 👇

Let’s finish these taster sessions strong 💥

🚨 SESIYNAU Galw Heibio IEUENCTID WYTHNOS 4 🚨

Y sesiwn flasu olaf wythnos nesaf! 💥

Rydyn ni wedi cael ychydig wythnosau gwych gyda phobl ifanc yn dod lawr i ymlacio, cael hwyl a chystadlu ychydig gyda pool, tenis bwrdd a darts, a bwyd da hefyd 🙌

Os ydych chi yn 11–17 oed ac heb ddod lawr eto, Wythnos 4 yw eich cyfle olaf i ddod i weld beth mae’r sesiynau’n ei gynnig. Dewch â ffrind gyda chi 👊

💬 Byddwn hefyd yn gofyn i’r bobl ifanc am eu barn:
📝 Beth maen nhw wedi mwynhau am y sesiynau
💡 Beth hoffent ei weld yn y dyfodol
🏘️ A hoffent weld y sesiynau hyn yn dod yn rhywbeth parhaol yn y gymuned

Gall eich adborth helpu i lunio beth sy’n digwydd nesaf – a byddem wrth ein bodd yn edrych ar barhau â’r sesiynau os oes digon o ddiddordeb.

📍 Lleoliad: Canolfan Deuluol Pencader
📅 Diwrnod: Mis Mawrth Dydd Mawrth 17ed
🕒 Amser: 4-6 o'gloch

🚨 YOUTH DROP-INS – WEEK 3 🚨

Week 3 done and the energy keeps building 💥

Another great turnout this week with young people coming down to chill, compete and have some fun. Pool, table tennis, darts, good food and plenty of laughs again 🙌 Can't believe I lost a game of Bullseye as well!😅

If you’re aged 11–17 and haven’t been down yet, you’re always welcome to join us. Bring a friend along 👊

It’s been brilliant seeing familiar faces returning each week and welcoming new ones along too, exactly what these sessions are all about.

💬 Looking ahead to Week 4…
Next session will be the final session of our taster drop-ins, and we’d really like to hear from the young people who’ve been coming along.

There will be a comments area where they can tell us:
📝 What they’ve enjoyed about the sessions
💡 What they’d like to see in the future
🏘️ Whether they’d like these sessions to become a permanent thing in the community

If there’s enough interest, we’d love to look at running something longer than the current 2-hour sessions, but we need their ideas and feedback to help make that happen.

Let’s finish these taster sessions strong next week 💥

🚨 SESSIYNAU GALW HEIBIO IEUENCTID – WYTHNOS 3 🚨

Wythnos 3 wedi’i chwblhau ac mae’r egni’n parhau i dyfu 💥

Roedd hi’n wych gweld tro gwych eto’r wythnos hon gyda phobl ifanc yn dod lawr i ymlacio, cystadlu a chael hwyl. Pŵl, tenis bwrdd, darts, bwyd da a llawer o hwyl unwaith eto 🙌

Os ydych chi rhwng 11–17 oed ac heb ddod lawr eto, mae croeso i chi bob amser. Dewch â ffrind gyda chi 👊

Mae wedi bod yn wych gweld wynebau cyfarwydd yn dychwelyd bob wythnos a chroesawu wynebau newydd hefyd, dyna’n union beth mae’r sesiynau yma’n ei olygu.

💬 Edrych ymlaen at Wythnos 4…
Bydd sesiwn yr wythnos nesaf yn olaf ein sesiynau blasu, ac hoffem glywed barn y bobl ifanc sydd wedi bod yn dod draw.

Bydd ardal sylwadau lle gallant rannu:
📝 Beth maen nhw wedi mwynhau am y sesiynau
💡 Beth hoffent ei weld yn y dyfodol
🏘️ A hoffent weld y sesiynau hyn yn dod yn rhywbeth parhaol yn y gymuned

Os oes digon o ddiddordeb, byddem wrth ein bodd yn edrych ar redeg sesiynau hirach na’r 2 awr presennol — ond mae angen eu syniadau a’u hadborth i helpu gwneud hynny’n bosibl.

Gadewch i ni orffen y sesiynau blasu hyn yn gryf yr wythnos nesaf 💥

Week 2 of 4 at our Youth Drop-Ins 🙌🔥

This week we turned things up a notch… 👀

We put everyone to the test with a blind taste challenge (some guesses were very confident… some were VERY wrong 😂)

We also got to show off our brand new equipment, and safe to say the upgrade has gone down a treat! 🎉 It’s already making sessions bigger, better and even more fun.

Same good vibes, plenty of laughs, and loads more ideas coming from our young people 🙌

Roll on Week 3… what should we challenge you with next? 😅

A huge thank you to Brechfa Forest West Wind Farm Community Benefit Fund , CODA NI and Cyngor Sir Gâr for helping us make this happen — we’re so grateful for your support. 💛

Wythnos 2 o 4 yn ein Sesiynau Galw Heibio Ieuenctid 🙌🔥

Yr wythnos hon fe wnaethon ni godi’r lefel ychydig… 👀

Fe wnaethon ni roi pawb ar brawf gyda her blasu dall (blind taste challenge) — roedd rhai dyfaliadau’n hyderus iawn… ac eraill yn hollol anghywir! 😂

Cawsom hefyd gyfle i ddangos ein hoffer newydd ac mae’n deg dweud bod e wedi mynd lawr yn arbennig o dda! 🎉 Mae'n gwneud y sesiynau’n fwy well ac yn fwy o hwyl.

Diolch o galon i Brechfa Forest Wind Farm Community Fund, CODA NI a Carmarthenshire County Council am helpu i wneud hyn yn bosibl — rydym yn hynod ddiolchgar am eich cefnogaeth 💛

Yr un hwyl a’r un egni gwych, a llwyth o syniadau’n dal i ddod gan ein pobl ifanc 🙌

Ymlaen at Wythnos 3… beth ddylem ni eich herio chi gyda nesaf? 😅

We’ve absolutely loved seeing so many young people coming along to our youth drop-ins recently, including some younger faces who popped in to see what it’s all about! 😊
It was lovely to meet you all and we’re so glad you enjoyed it.

Just a quick reminder that our youth drop-ins are for 11–17 year olds only, as the sessions are planned specifically for that age group to make sure they’re suitable and safe for everyone attending.

For our younger children, we’d love to welcome you to:
💛 Friends Club – Wednesdays, 3pm–5pm (and soon expanding to two days a week!)
💛 Our Family Centre – open Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday, 9am–4pm, where younger children are very welcome to come and use the centre.

If our drop-ins continue to grow into a regular youth group, there may be even more opportunities in the future — so watch this space! 🌟

Please feel free to share this post so parents and carers are aware of the age groups and the sessions available. Thank you for your understanding and for being such a supportive community 😊

Exciting news! 🙌

Thanks to funding from Carmarthenshire County Council, we’ve been able to purchase brand-new equipment for our youth drop-ins, and it’s already going down a treat!

This equipment will help us make our sessions even more fun, inclusive and engaging for the young people who come along each week. We’re so grateful for the support, which allows us to continue creating a safe space where young people can connect, grow and just be themselves.

Thank you for helping us make it happen! 🌟

Lots of wrapping, lots of excitement! 🎁
We’ve been busy getting a lovely surprise ready for the children at the Family Centre.
A big thank you to The Salvation Army United Kingdom and Ireland Territory — but I think my wrapping days are over! 😂

💙 Memory Café – A Wonderful Community Initiative 💙

Last month, I had the pleasure of meeting Sian and Carys at Tysul Church Hall, next to the library in Llandysul, to learn more about their fantastic Memory Café.

The Memory Café aims to support people living with dementia by offering a safe, welcoming space, along with understanding, companionship, and support for those who need it. It’s a truly valuable initiative and something we may explore further for the Pencader area in the future.

For anyone who may be interested, the Memory Café takes place on the 3rd Wednesday of every month, from 10am–12pm. It’s a wonderful asset to the local community and well worth sharing 💙
