T.L.C. (Ty-Sign and Local Community Partnership)

To provide lighting and fencing to a multi use games area children’s park and small skateboard park in the Ty-Sign area. This facility is only currently used in the Summer due to insufficient lighting and lack of security for the children/youth.

What does your charity/project do?

By all agencies working together with different age groups and canvassing their opinions these improvements have come out top of their agenda to improve their community. We are working together to make this happen. The changes that we wish to make will benefit everyone and give the youth an area to call their own. This should reduce anti social behaviour and provide a safe environment for years to come.

How does your charity/project support the local community?

The TLC provides service for all ages within the community. They provide a cafe, bingo for the over 50’s, Under 14’s youth club etc. The committee is made up by local members and supported by many different services, one of which being Caerphilly youth service who work at street level in the community and support local policing teams dealing with anti social behaviour, this is the main concern for local residents.

What do you plan to use the CommunityForce award for?

In the middle of the estate is a large field which has in the past had funding to create a skate park and children play area. Due to its location this field is surrounded by houses, which causes areas of vast darkness in the winter months meaning the field is not used, and parents concerned over safety. The funds offered would be used to create adequate lighting and fencing to make the area safe and secure so it can be used the whole 12 months of the year.

Then was there much ado in the family of Christian, for such was his name, that he should run from his home on a way which all knew to be perilous. Two of his neighbors did Christian implore to accompany him. The name of the one was Obstinate, that of the other Pliable. “What,” cried Obstinate, “leave our friends and comforts behind us?” But Pliable went with him for a space, till they reached a quag named the Slough of Despond. Having wallowed here for a time Pliable, getting out on the side nearest to his home, turned back. But Christian struggling on alone, one Help came to his rescue and led him to solid ground.

Here as Christian was walking he espied afar off a Mr. Worldly Wiseman, of the town of Carnal Policy. To his questions as to where he would be going Christian replied that he sought means to be rid of the burden on his back. “Why, in yonder village, Morality,” said the gentleman, “there dwells one whose name is Legality, and who hath a pretty young man, Civility, to his son. These will ease thee of thy burden.” So saying he directed Christian to a high hill, the which, on his reaching it, bent over so much that it was like to fall on and bury him.

Now Christian began to be sorry that he had taken Mr. Worldly Wiseman’s counsel; whereupon he again saw Evangelist, who encouraged him to go back and seek the Gate for which he had been making when urged to go out of the way. So in process of time Christian got up to this Gate, over which was written, “Knock and it shall be opened unto you.” He knocked, therefore, and one named Good-will came to answer.

THE PILGRIM’S PROGRESS

By JOHN BUNYAN

AS I walked through the wilderness of this world I lighted on a certain place where was a Den and laid me down to sleep. As I slept I dreamed a dream. I saw a man clothed with rags, a book in his hand, and a burden on his back. Reading in the book, he broke out with a cry: “What shall I do to be saved?”

God chose to make us
God is love (1 Cornthians 13)
Gods love shown in his vulnerability(Immanuel)
Responding to Gods love (1 Cor 13)
