The
newly funded Iorwerth Rowlands Community Project was
identified by the Canolfan Iorwerth Rowlands centre, the
Beaumaris over 50s club, and by Medrwn Mons consumer
unit, through research, holding various events, and
gaining other feedback from members of the local
community to gain a bigger picture of what the local
community needs were.
It is a new and innovative project, which employs one
full time project manager and one part time project
assistant that will run for three years from May 2008
and is funded by the Big Lottery Funds "People & Places"
programme.
The project itself aims to provide the following
outcomes:-
- Increase the number of volunteers in south east
Anglesey by recruiting, training, and supporting
volunteers and placing them at identified and
suitable organisations within the local community.
- Provide improved information and signposting on
a range of topics to members of the community in
south east Anglesey.
- Provide increased opportunities for young people
to take part in sports and exercise activities.
The centre is currently placing volunteers at
various organisations and businesses in the local
community and if you are interested in volunteering or
would like further information, please contact the
centre.
CIRC is currently working with Beaumaris Toursit
Information Point, Beaumaris Day Care Centre, RNLI
Lifeboat Shop, Meals on Wheels. More partnerships are in
the pipeline. Ask the centre for further details.
