FFYNNON WEN CELEBRATES JUBILEE
Queen and Prince Charles visited us on the day, which was a well-kept secret. Nia did glitter tattoos. Food, sweets, and drinks where available all day, along with a BBQ and buffet. The 3 eldest residents were delivered afternoon tea by our party price and Princess. When the equipment was removed we enjoyed karaoke old-fashioned carnival games finished by a firework display, making a spectacular end to a memorable day. The street came together offering help from putting up banners, bunting, cleaning kerbs, cooking and baking. S.A Holwell Friends of Ffynnon Wen With Sarah, Hayley, Nia Matthews & Julie Jones
A LETTER OF APPRECIATION Dear Editor, We created a group of Facebook asking for help to arrange a street party to celebrate The Queens Jubilee. A committee was formed in April 21. In agreement with residents we started collecting subs of £5 a month along with weekly raffles. Donations of duvet covers was cut and sewn into a mile of bunting. The Prince Kenfig, Maundy’s fish shop, Filco, Spa North Cornelly, and Cantonese Porthcawl donated to the day. White Well printers gave us two banners that framed the entrance to our street. Bunting was put up the week before. On the day of the event we had a small bouncy castle, an assault course, rodeo bull and all day disco. We hired a magic mirror; from this with the help of our community council we gave every child a framed picture of themselves on the day as a form of memorabilia. The
Dear Editor, Following a recent fall, which resulted in a broken hip, I would like to thank the following people. Firstly, the wonderful Paramedics who promptly attended my home. All the staff on Ward 9, Princess of Wales Hospital, Bridgend, for their outstanding care throughout. To the lady from ‘Age Connect’ (formally known as Age Concern), who brought me safely home. I am also grateful for the after care provided by the District Nurses. And a thank you to my neighbours for the cards, flowers, chocolates & welsh cakes. I am making good progress with my recovery & will be nominating my husband Brian for “Housewife of the year!” Phillipa Lewis Waunlon, Porthcawl
