Posted By RobertLloyd58

The cheese and onion pastie is one of the most popular snacks in the Jenkins Bakery product range.

Help Age Cymru Sir Gâr in Tesco Bags of Help appeal

Posted By RobertLloyd58

Age Cymru Sir Gâr in Carmarthenshire have applied to the Tesco Bags of Help scheme and needs your support to help win up to £4,000 to help us support older people with new technology.
Ann Dymock, chief officer of Age Cymru Sir Gâr, explained –
“Tesco donates all the 5ps that they charge for carrier bags to a charitable cause. Age Cymru Sir Gâr are in the final 3 for July 2017 and details about the charity and the work it wants to achieve with funding help from Tesco will be displayed in its Carmarthenshire stores throughout July.
“To help us win the £4,000 for the charity to help older people learn how to engage with new technology please vote for us. All you need to do is to make a purchase of any value from a Tesco store. You will receive one token per transaction (you may need to ask for the token) and it’s not necessary to purchase a carrier bag in order to receive a token. At the front of the store there will be three bins where you can place your blue token. Just pop the token into the one that says Age Cymru Sir Gâr and that gains us one vote.
“If your local Tesco does not have an Age Cymru Sir Gâr box and you’ve got tokens that you would like to use, please drop them into the office or ring and let us know and a member of staff can take them to our local Tesco and put them in the Age Cymru Sir Gâr box for you.
“We need your votes. Please ask friends and neighbours to support us, too.”

New pop-up gallery opens at Plas Llanelly House

Posted By RobertLloyd58

A new pop-up gallery has opened in Llanelli at historic Plas Llanelly House.

The new gallery features exhibits by awarding-winning artist Denise Di Battista (John Street Gallery) and Llanelli Photographic Society member Arthur Mallett.

“This is a first for Plas Llanelly House,” said trustee Alison Evans.

“We’ve got some great rooms to show off her at Plas Llanelly House and it’s great to be able to create a buzz in the house with the installation of a pop-up gallery.

“Denise Di Battista is a very well known local artist who already runs a successful gallery in John Street.

“Arthur Mallett is a wonderful photographer and his prints will also attract a great deal of local interest.

The pop-up gallery is on the ground floor and everyone is welcome to come in and have a browse.

Arthur Mallett is a member of Llanelli Photographic Society and gained his AWPF (Associate of the Welsh Photographic Federation) in 2010.

He said: “I have taken photos for most of my life but only took it seriously in about 2004 when I first joined Llanelli Photographic Society. My main passion is landscapes but I also enjoy all other styles of photography.”

Denise Di Battista is based at the John Street Gallery in Llanelli – a building that is the bricks and mortar destination gallery of ArtOfWales.com
