HANDS AND HEARTS
A stunning mural made by the hands and hearts of fifty local volunteers and Lions members is a celebration of Ammanford and the surrounding area.

Commissioned by Ammanford Lions to mark 50 years supporting the town, the mural was funded by a £5,000 National Lottery grant.
It incorporates a miner’s lamp and coal to depict an industrial history, with wind turbines showing the new energy source.
The background features the mountains and rivers that define the Ammanford area. The Marsh Fritillary butterfly and Devil’s-Bit Scabious plant capture the area’s natural rural beauty.
Its rich musical heritage is denoted by music notes. Words in Welsh and English convey the strong community spirit of Rhydaman (Ammanford) in Camarthenshire.
