​for any community issues that you may have! ​

Here is some of what we do:

• Provide this website to keep residents up-to-date with pertinent, local information
  
• Provide 'Talybont Matters', our quarterly local newsletter 
• Maintain the playground and playing fields at Henderson Hall (which is owned by the council)
• Monitor the Henry Vaughan Garden and Walking Trail
