LATEST:

Bridgend County Borough Council has appealed against the decision by the Vale of Glamorgan Council to refuse planning permission in relation to the Ogmore School Camp site St. Brides Major Community Council has been asked to provide evidence of the school camp's use as a community facility.  If you are aware of any community use at any time over the years, eg meetings, courses, clubs, sporting activities, social events, etc., you are asked to write to the Vale Planning Department and if possible send a copy to St. Brides Major Community Council as well.

Wick Village Fete Committee are planning several events to celebrate the Diamond Jubilee of HM Queen Elizabeth II.  These include a dance, village fete and Dragon Parade, followed by the lighting of the Beacon which will be one of 2,012 throughout the country.  Anyone wishing to help with the organisation of these events should contact Carol Brown on 01656 890124.  

There are many events planned in order to raise funds in aid of the Western Vale Eisteddfod Appeal (due to be held at Llandow from 4th to 11th August, 2012) such as car boot sales, firework display and led walks.  Each walk will visit two churches in the Benefice and a local inn and is flexible; if you cannot walk far you can just visit one of the churches or end your walk at the public house.  Donation of around £3 per person collected on the day.  Help and support welcomed. 

Inconsiderate parking, antisocial behaviour, lighting of illegal fires and damage to the Common have all been a cause of concern to Ogmore-by-Sea residents are therefore a PACT priority.  Did you know these incidents can be reported by calling 101 which is a non-emergency number? 

Do you buy milk in plastic bottles?  If so, please consider collecting the green tops and taking them to St. Bridget's Church, St. Brides Major, or All Saints Church, Southerndown, to help Heronsbridge School - and why not take along postcards and stamps for Children in Distress too!
