Summer Activities in Felinfoel

Felinfoel Communities First is supporting a range of summer activities for local residents.

The highlight of the summer is the Felinfoel Summer Carnival organised by the Events Committee which is being held on Saturday August 7. The Carnival Parade begins at 12:15pm outside the Felinfoel Brewery and then onto the Recreation for the Carnival.

On Tuesday August 17 there will be a Litter Pick jointly organised by Keep Wales Tidy and Communities First. The meeting point is Danybanc Community Garden, and the pick will last from 1:30pm – 4pm.

Carmarthenshire County Cllr Clive Scourfield said: “Communities First is supporting a range of events this summer and I would encourage local people to join in.”

The Welsh Assembly funded Communities First programme is aimed at helping to regenerate the most deprived communities in Carmarthenshire.

The aim is to improve the living conditions and prospects for people in the wards and ensure that funding is targeted at the poorest areas.

The team is run by Carmarthenshire County Council, and a host of events and educational activities are staged in the area every year, along with specific regeneration programmes.
