Boost for Cross Hands subway
Following recent complaints about the state of Cross Hands subway, Gwendraeth Youth Forum have taken on the challenge of sprucing up the area.
The subway, now dated and run down, will soon become a burst of colour thanks to the efforts of young people.
Graffiti and creative writing workshops have taken place in the Gwendraeth area to prepare youth forum members for design work on the subway in June.
Gwendraeth Youth Forum will work on the project in partnership with Llannon Town Council and Carmarthenshire Council’s Tidy Towns department.
Gwendraeth Youth Forum members, Shannon Davies said “When we found out that residents were unhappy with the current state of Cross Hands subway we decided to take action and make the area more appealing.
“We have organised several workshops run by professional artists and I’m confident that with all the efforts from various organizations the area will look fantastic.”
Youth Link Worker, Rhys Morris added:“It’s really refreshing to see young people going out of their way to make projects within the community happen and wanting nothing back in return.
“The commitment and motivation shown by members of the Youth Forum has been a real inspiration and hopefully more young people will learn by their example.”
Work on the subway is due to start in June and anyone wishing to be part of the project should contact Rhys Morris on: 01267 234567
