CHAIRMANS BLOG SEPTEMBER 2016

It was a cold, wet night. A night to stay in and watch television. At least 200 people thought otherwise and crammed into Pontyberem Hall and were duly rewarded with a superb display of musical skills provided by one family.

What an experience!  Charlie Lovell-Jones, destined to be one of the biggest stars as a solo violinist, just 17 years old; his brother Harry, already an accomplished percussionist; his sister, Lizzie, a cellist with a promising future; mother Sara on the clarinet and of course, Simon, the father, an accompanist of great distinction.

A night to remember as they dedicated the concert to Talking Books Wales. There was a well deserved and prolonged standing ovation for this ultra talented family.

Many thanks to all the sponsors and the team at Pontyberem Hall and to everyone for attending.

The third Golf Tournament will be held at Derllys on 21 September. A warm welcome to golfers everywhere. Please get in touch with Mansel Thomas (01554890172) as soon as possible to register.

The response to Light a Candle Week- end has been very encouraging and I hope that you are arranging something special for those three days – 21-23 October.

The last few weeks have been frenetic and we thank everyone for their very generous donations and giving the new initiative such a positive and encouraging send-off.

Thank you Alun Williams for the photographs.
