How to Build A Town

 

What if you could build the future of our neighbourhood?

How To Build A Town will look at what needs to change and how communities can be central to shaping the places we live for future generations. You will have the opportunity to be part of a performance based conversation which will influence decision making in Cardiff. Your voice will make a difference and have an impact on the future of St Mellons.

How to Build a Town will bring together residents, people who work in the area, the council, and other decision-makers, to explore the change that needs to be made and the community’s future needs. 

It will include conversations, eating together, and sharing monologues and poetry created from testimonies of the people of St.Mellons, written by Patrick Jones.  

 WHEN – Saturday September 21st from 6pm-8pm

WHERE – St Mellons Hub and Library 30 Crickhowell Road, St Mellons, CF3 0EF. 

We’ll be serving free food! Come and eat with your neighbours, and talk about what matters to you. 

The event is free! Please book here via our Eventbrite, and make sure you tell us your dietary requirements. Alternatively, contact Chantal Williams on [email protected] or 07983883313. 

How to Build a Town is part of a project looking at Cardiff City Council’s Local Development Plan. We are working in collaboration with Cardiff University, ACE, Grange Pavilion and Splott Volunteers to build on and ensure representation in the LDP of the Southern Arc.
