‘Hwb-Date’

Welcome to the first ‘Hwb-Date’, an update on the Hwb Yr Orsedd project.

As a reminder, the Hwb Yr Orsedd project was created by Rossett Community Council following community consultation to develop the site of the existing public toilets in Rossett Park, into a community hub. The vision for the Hwb is to create:

• A shared community space for groups of different ages and interests to meet, socialise and participate in shared activities.

• Somewhere for families to meet up with friends and grab a coffee while the children use the park facilities.

• A place that brings people together, reduces isolation and helps them form new relationships and support networks.

Although there is a core team of volunteers overseeing the project, it’s important to remember that this is a project being led by the community for the community.

We welcome your input, if you want to be involved, please get in touch.

In October, planning permission was given by Wrexham Council to proceed with the Hwb development. Progress is now dependent on securing funding and this is currently the priority for the core team.

There is also work being undertaken to achieve building regulations and ensure the business plan and statutory organisational requirements are in place.

There will be regular ‘Hwb-Dates’ in EssentialsMAG during the year.

For further information, visit our Facebook page: @hwbyrorsedd, we also hope to have a website available soon.

If you have any questions, or would like to get involved, you can contact the team via Facebook or email us at: hwbyrorsedd@gmail.com.
