Community council

A letter was received from Gwynedd Council’s Economy and Community department regarding re-modelling the youth service and what is the best way forward following the recent consultation.

The letter stated further that Gwynedd Council Cabinet on 13 March this year will be discussing re-modelling the youth service and coming to a final decision on the way it wishes to move forward.

It also said that if the Cabinet approves this new direction Gwynedd Council will no longer run any youth clubs from 1 April 20 and therefore they are offering the different kind of arrangements that can be considered – the local community council considering to fund the youth club at a cost of around £4,250 a year, or the community council running a voluntary youth club or a voluntary group running a voluntary youth club. They would like to know which option the council favours by 9 March.

Gwynedd Council’s Adults, Health and Wellbeing department sent a letter to the community council informing that they are establishing Community Resources Teams between the Adults, Health and Wellbeing Department and Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Board.

There will be five Community Resources Teams established across the county and some of the staff from the three areas and the staff that were part of the Adults Advice and Assessment Team transferred to the new teams on 5 February.

This area will be serviced by South Meirionnydd and the contact number is 01341 424499 [email protected]u.
