August 26, 2013

Pembrokeshire Citizens Advice Bureau has recently benefited from a Port of Milford Haven community fund grant to assist with the delivery of their financial literacy programme.

The ongoing Financial Inclusion project, funded by Communities First, targeting residents and community groups within designated cluster areas is being supported by additional Pembrokeshire CAB resources to promote and deliver similar services throughout the County.

Pembrokeshire CAB Chief Officer, Nicola Roguski, said “Now, more than ever, people need to be in a position to manage their personal finances. An increasing number of our clients are struggling with debt. Basic budgeting skills are essential if they are going to prevent further problems once current issues are resolved. We are delighted that the Port of Milford Haven acknowledge our work and have agreed to fund a part of this important programme”.

Mark Andrews, Corporate affairs director at the Port of Milford Haven added “Pembrokeshire’s Citizens Advice Bureau is providing an important service to the community in difficult economic times and we are pleased to be able to assist with the delivery of such a valuable programme.”

Pembrokeshire CAB Financial Inclusion Coordinator, Peter Dickinson said “My team are keen to engage with individuals and groups in order to deliver bespoke workshops that are intended to educate and empower people to take control of their personal finances. Topics covered include budgeting, shopping habits, saving/borrowing and home energy saving tips as well as options for dealing with debt. Personal money management is a key life skill and as the ‘charity for the community’ we wish to assist as many people as possible to improve their situation”.

Railway children relive historic journey to Llangollen Eisteddfod

Published

July 8, 2026

MORE than 50 children from two Dee Valley community schools stepped back into local history when they travelled by train to Llangollen International Musical Eisteddfod’s Children’s Day.

Pupils from Ysgol Corwen and Ysgol Carrog boarded a vintage diesel train at Corwen Station before making the journey along the heritage line to Llangollen, arriving shortly after 9am to enjoy a sunny day at the festival.

The journey revived a much-loved local tradition. Children from the Corwen and Carrog areas once travelled by train from their local stations to the Eisteddfod’s Children’s Day every year, until the Ruabon to Barmouth line was closed in the early 1960s following the Beeching cuts.

Thanks to the route’s revival as a thriving heritage railway, Llangollen International Musical Eisteddfod and Llangollen & Corwen Railway have been able to bring the annual outing back to life, with the tradition returning in 2019.

This year’s group of young “railway children” waved from the carriage windows as they pulled into Llangollen Station, where they were welcomed by representatives from the Eisteddfod and the railway.

There was also time for photographs, and even a couple of songs from the children, before they were guided from the station to the Eisteddfod field for a packed day of activities and performances.

Eisteddfod organiser Ian Lebbon, who helps arrange the special journeys, said they remained an important link with communities along the heritage line.

He said: “We see them as extremely important to the people in the communities at the other end of the heritage line, where the railway is part of their everyday lives.

“The railway, of course, is one of the three great highways of the valley, along with the River Dee and the A5 road.

“Many of these children will never have travelled by train before, especially one as magnificent as the heritage one they came on today.

“It’s also good for them to be able to see and enjoy the Eisteddfod. Many of them will be coming to the festival for the first time and we hope they will become regular visitors.”

Becky Mollison-White, assistant headteacher at Ysgol Carrog, said the children had thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

She said: “It was an amazing experience for the children from the two schools and they were all very excited about it.

“Corwen and Carrog both have stations on the heritage line and the children were very happy about getting the opportunity to travel on it.”

Helping guide the children to the Eisteddfod field were young people from Ysgol Dinas Brân in Llangollen and Ysgol Morgan Llwyd in Wrexham, who work at the festival each year as Welcome Hosts.

Mr Lebbon said the scheme also offered the young volunteers a valuable opportunity to build confidence, gain experience and improve their future career prospects.

Remarkable flying boat model collection gifted to Heritage Centre

Fourteen intricate aircraft models chart RAF flying boat history from the First World War to the late 1930s

A REMARKABLE timeline of RAF flying boat history can now be seen at Pembroke Dock Heritage Centre, following the donation of an exquisite collection of aircraft models.

Fourteen models, showing flying boat types from the First World War through to the late 1930s, have been gifted by expert modelmaker Fred Martin, of Bristol, who made a special visit to Pembrokeshire to hand over the collection.

The models include the Supermarine Southampton, which in 1931 became the first flying boat to be stationed at the newly opened RAF Pembroke Dock, and the Short Singapore, the last of the biplane flying boats, which was still in operational use at the outbreak of the Second World War in 1939.

Fred, who has been making models for more than 60 years, estimates that many of the aircraft took between 80 and 100 hours each to complete.

He said: “The Heritage Centre team have done a quite outstanding job and the exhibits are so professionally presented and varied. I am so pleased that I have been able to contribute to the story.”

Trevor Clark, of the Heritage Centre’s Collections Team, said the models were an important addition to the centre’s aviation displays.

He said: “Many of the models are from vacform kits, which are very intricate and challenging to make. Every type of biplane flying boat used by the RAF in the 1920s and 1930s is represented. All were seen on the Haven Waterway at various times.”

Volunteer Paul Emens, himself a highly skilled modelmaker and member of the Penfro Model Club, added: “It is a remarkable collection and the quality of each one is superb, right down to the myriad of rigging wires.”

The Heritage Centre already displays several models of Sunderland and Catalina aircraft from the Second World War era, but Fred noted that one flying boat is still missing from the collection.

“This is the Saro Lerwick, which looks like a two-engined Sunderland,” he said. “I am only aware of two kits that have been produced in 1/72 scale. Both are no longer in production and are very rare. It does, however, occasionally appear, so I will keep a lookout.”

Pembroke Dock was Wales’ only Royal Dockyard, a major garrison town and, during the Second World War, home to the largest flying boat station in the world.

The Heritage Centre’s displays interpret the maritime, aviation and military heritage of the town, as well as the social and community history of Pembroke Dock.

The centre is currently open Monday to Friday, from 10:00am to 4:00pm.

THE FAMILY of an 18-year-old man who died after entering the River Wye during a Duke of Edinburgh expedition have paid tribute to a “loving” young man who will be “dearly missed”.

Umar Dumbuya, from London, died in Glasbury, Powys, on Tuesday, June 30.

Dyfed-Powys Police have issued a photograph of Umar and a tribute from his family following the tragedy.

His family said: “We are heartbroken by the loss of our son, brother and grandson. There are no words that can describe the pain we are feeling as a family.

“Umar was a loving boy and will be dearly missed by everyone who knew him.

“Umar loved spending time playing basketball, attending the gym, and being with friends and family.

“We will always remember Umar for his kindness, warmth and sense of humour. His death has left a devastating hole in our family, and we now ask for privacy as we take time to grieve.”
