- Installation of a Community Public Access Defibrillator
Over the last few years, we have raised over £1,700 for a defibrillator and the Welsh Ambulance Service Trust recently installed one on the wall of the Queen’s Head Pub. Details on how to use it are inside the defibrillator, which is unlocked and available 24/7. So if someone collapses, please call 999, and if a defibrillator is required, the ambulance service will advise and provide guidance. Step by step instructions are also available inside the box.
- Adoption of the Village Phone Kiosk
BT has allowed us to adopt the phone kiosk which is no longer in use. We hope it will become a community hub where we can exchange/sell things or hold local historical displays, or even encourage its use as an art gallery/art space. It is currently not weather-proof, so book exchanges would suffer from the damp conditions but the plan is to invest and improve it for future use; ideas for the kiosk are warmly welcomed. - The Embankment (in the middle of the Village Waun Road)
i) Access to the houses on the embankment is treacherous and putting out recycling can be challenging; also, it’s not well lit in winter. We’re currently in talks with Conwy County Council regarding improvements.
ii) Ideas for Developing the Embankment: The aim is to make this a feature of Glanwydden Village and encourage folk to get involved. Ideas suggested include planting flowers for pollinators eg butterflies and bees and perhaps installing a bench (or two) for residents/visitors.
