January 2005 - Iorwerth Rowlands Awarded an MBE

 Iorwerth Rowlands has been honoured in the New Year list with an MBE for his services to the community in Beaumaris.

A leading pillar of the community, Iorwerth has worked to develop the community centres in the town for the young people of the area, including the Canolfan Beaumaris Centre, and the newly refurbished Canolfan Iorwerth Rowlands Centre.

Iorwerth Rowlands, a 78 year old retired dairy farmer, has worked tirelessly to improve the facilities available to young people in East Anglesey. "I've managed to get two lottery grants for the town valued at around £1m," he said.

"We got one for a youth centre that was going to be demolished....it was named the Iorwerth Rowland Centre after me," he added. " Beaumaris means a lot to me. This MBE is for the people of Beaumaris, they've looked after me well, I can't imagine anyone being anything other than excited to be getting this from their town."
 
January 2005 - New Website Launched

The Canolfan Iorwerth Rowlands Centre has a new website which provides up to date information about the Beaumaris and East Anglesey Youth Club, including pictures from away trips, and information about up and coming events. The website has been put together by local website designer Carolyn Warburton, together with several other members of the local community who are participating in a range of activities to promote the centre.

The site features the range of Adult courses provided at the centre, and includes an online form that visitors can use to express interest in new courses. In addition, full information is provided on the Over 50s club activities, Citizens Advice Bureau and Job Centre services, all of which are hosted at the Canolfan.
