If you wish to volunteer to join the committee please ask another member to propose you and then sign the form to say you agree to stand.

This will be an exciting year to be a part of the Forum as we expect to be involved in further work developing the Ferryside residential site, creating allotments and mini growing spaces, building on the success of the summer market, supporting further work in the village Sports facilities, regular beach clear-ups and social events.  If you feel we should also be working on other priorities please come along and let us know what is important to you.

If you have any questions please contact me or any other member of the committee.

We look forward to seeing you on October 14th

You may have noticed lots of activity in the Old Education Centre in the last few months.

More is about to happen.

This is due to the hard work of the Ferryside Social Enterprise Group (FSEG) which has recently become a charity, the Ferryside Village Forum (who run the market), Ferryside Sports, Men’s Sheds, Broadside films and all the other groups such as the Arts and Heritage group including many enthusiastic Individuals.

We feel very strongly that this valuable resource should be utilised for the benefit of the whole community. An opportunity to get involved and find out what is happening has presented itself.

A local resident with considerable experience in developing similar sites and making successful bids for substantial funding has made a very generous offer to run a series of workshops to bring together the range of ideas that have already been developed and new suggestions that come from the community. Business opportunities will be discussed. He will then help to create a revitalised and inclusive plan of action and work out a schedule of bids that stand a strong chance of succeeding.

This expertise would normally cost a fortune!!

All we need to make this work is YOU

With representatives from the local interest groups, clubs, societies, businesses and enthusiastic individuals from Ferryside, Llansaint and within St Ishmaels parish we will meet on Sunday 12^th October to strengthen the Vision and work together on Monday 13^th and Tuesday 14^th to develop a working plan.

We really do need everyone’s ideas.
