Cyngor Cymuned Blaenhonddan Community Council

Cyngor Cymuned Blaenhonddan Community Council Blaenhonddan Community Council is a community council serving the six villages in Blaenhonddan

With a population of nearly 11,000, Blaenhonddan has five primary schools in the villages of Cilfrew, Cadoxton, Waunceirch and Bryncoch, and is also served by Dwr y Felin and Llangatwg Comprehensive Schools. Welsh medium education is provided at Ysgol Gynradd Gymraeg Castell Nedd and at Ysgol Gyfun Ystalyfera. As well as being an attractive rural area with many public footpaths, Blaenhonddan has a

rich past, with evidence of its industrial, religious, social and settlement history still to be found. There are plentiful opportunities to enjoy this history and some splendid views as you walk around the area. The Community Council has been an important part of the life of this community since 1894 and its records, retained at the West Glamorgan Archive Service in the Civic Centre Swansea, provide a useful source of reference to the past. This website provides a new source of information for the present and a valuable resource for the future.

A huge thank you to everyone who came along and supported our Family Fun Day!

Despite the weather trying its best to dampen things, the day was a real success and it was wonderful to see such amazing community spirit throughout the event. Seeing families, friends and residents coming together, enjoying themselves and supporting local stalls and activities made all the hard work worthwhile.

Thank you to all of our volunteers, stall holders, performers, councillors and everyone who helped make the day possible โ€” we couldnโ€™t have done it without you.

Most importantly, thank you to our community for turning up with smiles, enthusiasm and support. We hope you all had a fantastic day!
