THE latest community news from Nefyn

Parti ar y Pafin

THE very first Parti ar y Pafin street party was an enormous success.

It was great to see Nefyn High Street transformed once again into a bustling hub of economic activity.

Over 1,000 people turned up to a day of music, food, children’s activities and some great produce and craft stalls that really showcased all that Nefyn has to offer. Over £3,000 was raised for the renovation of Tafarn yr Heliwr.

Diolch to Arloesi Gwynedd for their funding, and thanks to our brilliant volunteers for helping the day run smoothly.

A special vote of thanks goes to Nefyn Youth Committee for their hard work, with some members up at the crack of dawn!

If you would like to get involved in planning another Parti ar y Pafin for 2020, email tafarnyrheliwr@ outlook.com.

They need your support if you want it to happen again!

Mural

THE Unique Streets funding from Arloesi Gwynedd is designed to support innovative ways to revitalize Gwynedd’s High Streets.

To fulfil this aim, Tafarn yr Heliwr has commissioned local artist Darren Evans to create a mural for the side of the Old Post- Ashley’s shop.

The idea is to brighten up the gateway to Nefyn and celebrate the town’s unique history and heritage.

Darren has come up with some exciting designs, and we have worked with Mirain Fflur and pupils from Ysgol Nefyn to ensure the mural reflects the ideas of the next generation.

Calor Gas

TAFARN yr Heliwr has managed to secure £5,000 funding from the Calor Gas Community Fund.

They would like to thank everyone for the votes that got them to the final.

The cash will be spent on painting the facade of Tafarn yr Heliwr, new hanging baskets and signage, and lighting – making the High Street look and feel better for everyone.

G?yl Cwrw Ll?n

THANKS to Cwrw Ll?n, Tafarn yr Heliwr ran their barbecue again at the annual G?yl Cwrw Ll?n.

It was, as always, a great day out.

They made over £1,000; together with the money from Parti ar y Pafin, this will be spent on refurbishment of the inside of the building.

Annual General Meeting

THE Tafarn yr Heliwr Annual General Meeting will be held at 7pm on Monday, 9 September, at Y Ganolfan.

Some people have received share certificates by email, but may have had difficulty opening them.

Let them know if you have experienced difficulties, so they can try re-sending in a different format.

Please note that due to the number of certificates needing to be sent out, they will arrive over the next few weeks.

Volunteering

THE Sunday volunteering sessions will begin again on Sunday, 1 September, from 10am until 1pm.

If you can spare a few hours to out at Tafarn yr Heliwr send an email to: tafarnyrheliwr@ outlook.com

They are very proud to hear that some members of Pwyllgor Ieuenctid Nefyn (Nefyn Youth Committee) that volunteer with them are now working towards a Gwynedd Volunteer Scheme certificate by Mantell Gwynedd.
