Someone just told me that when they read the poem dry (on paper) they felt it was naive, however, after hearing Michael’s rendition, they said the message is powerful. Amazing 🤩 Huge thanks to the incredible Michael Sheen!
Still as passionate as ever about reopening Tudor Street Day Centre for disabled people in and around Abergavenny. The need for a dedicated community space is undeniable. Let's keep pushing for change! 🌟

Since Tudor Street closed, service users face high costs & logistical hurdles to access far-flung activities. Disabilities make this worse. The closure has also severed social ties, contributing to loneliness & mental health issues.
@MonmouthshireCC
, we need solutions now.
Join us for a crucial peaceful protest at 1:30pm at County Hall in Usk. The council is voting on the future of Tudor Street Disability Centre. Let's make our voices heard and fight for its reopening. Every voice counts!

"How a society treats its most vulnerable is always the measure of its humanity."
The truth is, our campaign group, and those like us around the world, shouldn't need to fight to help the most vulnerable amongst us: it should be a given + We are all vulnerable sometimes.

Consulted with a legal expert on the Tudor Street closure. The preliminary opinion indicates we're on solid legal ground to challenge the council's decision. It's unfortunate it has come to this, but we're committed to doing what's necessary for the community.

Yesterday afternoon, the council's last-minute decision to pause was a step forward. Yet, our past interactions hint at political games, not genuine engagement. True dialogue with our entire group is missing, fuelling cynicism. All community voices must be heard.
#TudorStreet
Campaigners have done so much work on the back end, to fight for the services users, and their families. Always on a voluntary basis and sometimes they’ve been out of pocket. The public have also been supportive. It’s wonderful to see such community spirit.
