Maerdy
Communities First
Communities
First is an all Wales programme funded
by the Welsh Assembly Government. The
aim is to provide local people with
opportunities to play an active role
in shaping the future of their community.
Over the last five years we have built
a strong Partnership in Maerdy. Local
People have worked hard, alongside
service providers and other agencies.
Together we have much to be proud of:
- Our Health Project encourages healthier
life-styles through practical activities
such as walking, running and Get
Cooking. The Maerdy Association for
Self Help
supports people suffering from
depression.
- Hundreds of children
and adults have taken part in clean
ups and
environmental
action days. We have created
Coedwig Fach Y Maerdy - The new community
woodland. We have recently acquired a community
allotment.
- We have established
a twice-weekly drop in, trained local
people to
be youth leaders and supported local residents
to set up Maerdy Kids R Us providing
weekly play and holiday play opportunities.
- Maerdy Advocacy Project works with
partners to support people to access
training and employment opportunities.
- Hundreds
of people have benefited from training:
First Aid, Play, Assertiveness,
Depression Busting, Hair and
Beauty, Brush Cutting - these are
just
a few of the wide range of courses we have
hosted.
