Matters Arising from the Minutes of the Last Meeting.
*
National Trust volunteers
have cleared and weeded the area
behind the Tafarn, also flower beds in the pub
garden.
* Open Forum - there was a
good turnout for the evening meeting and the
feedback has been very positive. The efforts made by the Shop,
Tafarn and Cymdeithas are much appreciated by the wider community
and should be encouraged to continue. It was noted that on Tuesday
11th May a Business Group made up of the Directors along with Philip,
Colin and Dan Jolley of the Welsh CoOperative Society will meet to
secure the proper running of the Company and to discuss its future
direction based on matters arising from the Forum, in particular the
development of a Business Plan and our relationship to the National
Trust within it.

attended and after lively discussion two books
were chosen to be discussed at the next meeting on
