The first Board meeting of the Swansea Community Boat Trust was held in December at the prestigious Morgan Coles building alongside the Tawe River Navigation on the Swansea Waterfront.
The
Swansea AMs - Andrew Davies, Edwina Hart and Val Lloyd - attended
to hear about the Trust's recent progress. They have been involved
in the project from the outset and their support is greatly appreciated.
The fact that they all attended the first Board meeting has given
the project a huge boost, as we know there are many demands on their
time.

We
are very pleased to announce that Val Lloyd has agreed to join the
Trust Board. Val has a pivotal role as Assembly Member for Swansea
East, as her constituency includes much of the River. She is Chair
of the 'All Party Group on Waterways' at the Welsh Assembly Government.
This brings together waterways interests from all over Wales - and
the meetings greatly influenced the development of Swansea Community
Boat. Having Val on the Trust Board will be a major asset.

Several
other Swansea Councillors were unable to attend due to prior commitments
- Councillors Gerald Clement, Robert Francis Davies, Erika Kirchner
and Rob Speht, but the Trust is delighted that they have all expressed
support for the Swansea Community Boat project.
Swansea
Councillors Sylvia Lewis and Bob Lloyd have also joined the management
committee. They are very experienced councillors with a great deal
to offer the project.
