The Welsh Government and many local councils in Powys and across Wales have declared a climate emergency. Llandrindod Town Council is working with Trawsnewid Llandrindod Transition on how the council can respond to the climate emergency. What does this mean for the town, and what will come out of it?

Join us with Cllr. Keith Brelstaff for a discussion on how we can work together on a meaningful local response to the global climate crisis.

Commodore Hotel

 

On Wednesday October 23rd we are hosting a major community event about responding to the climate emergency.
 
Our aim is to bring together local people to speak out and listen to one another to share in exploring what kind of a joint response we ‘the community’ can make to the threat to us and future generations.
 
It’s ‘not-a-conference’ because the purpose is not to give out information from experts:  instead we want to share the concerns of local people and consider how we might be able to influence our future – together.
 
There are three themes:
• Land and the Environment
• Health and Well-being
• Young People
 
The plan for the day is for us to look at
1. The symptoms of climate change in our community
2. What we believe are the underlying problems 
3. What tools and resources we have available to help us to make changes
4. What outcomes we can hope for 
 
Check HERE for our latest draft programme. This may change but in essence will remain the same.  The event will be held at the Commodore Hotel in Llandrindod Wells.  Funding has been made available by the Transition Group and the now closed Powys Transition and Low Carbon Communities project (PTLCC) to support the event.
 

Tickets are available from the Herb Garden Community Café, Sugar and Spice Bistro and Van’s Good Food Shop in town, or by emailing This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

The Commodore is also providing a set two course meal for £16 from midday if booked directly on 01597 822288 before 18 October.

Croeso i bawb!

From unprecedented moorland fires to record flash floods and the spread of livestock parasites, rural communities have increasingly found themselves on the front line of a global catastrophe. In 2019, most people go about their daily lives with little thought to spare for the growing threat of the Climate Emergency. Yet the emerging situation is on a scale never before faced by human civilisation.
 
What does climate breakdown mean for rural communities like those of mid Wales and the entire planet and what do we need to do to prevent it? Time is running out to secure safety and prosperity for young people of today, but it is not too late. Come along to an engaging lecture and to discuss the issues with  climate change speaker and activist, Scott Bennett.
 
Please download and display a poster to help promote this event.

Scott will also be a key speaker at 'Facing the Future', Llandrindod's summit on climate change, on 23 October at the Commodore Hotel.
