A Bit of Background….   Stori Brymbo is a lottery funded project that aims to preserve and communicate the value of the local social, industrial & natural history of the area, combining a rich history of metallurgy with an in-situ carboniferous forest to tell a 300-million-year story that cannot be told anywhere else in the world. The fossil forest was discovered by chance during reclamation of the old steelworks site in the early 2000’s and contains beautifully preserved in-situ plant fossils such as giant lycopod trees, thickets of calamatian horsetails and a plethora of smaller plants. Along with an aerially exposed coal seam and dynamic geology representative of a changing terrestrial wetland environment, the location provides a uniquely accessible example of late carboniferous coal-forming forests.    The Opportunity:   Become part of a unique excavation team! Over the next few years we will be excavating a portion of the fossil forest site in an endeavour to reveal all the fossil material contained within, leaving larger in-situ fossils in place and removing smaller samples for study. Our overarching goal is to create both a world class natural history attraction and a renowned centre for palaeontological research. Work within the fossil forest area will be publicly accessible and livestreamed to maximize our outreach and educational value. You will learn a lot and we hope you share a lot! This is a unique opportunity to get hands on experience and learn about lots of possible career paths that may interest you.  The Experience:   You will be supervised by our resident Paleobiologist, Dr Tim Astrop and the rest of the Stori Brymbo team during your visit. The fossil forest project is an ongoing effort to excavate, identify, conserve, catalogue and interpret the fossil material of the site and as such you will be involved in all these activities. Some areas of work require physical labour and may not be suitable for all people. We will do our best to make sure your experience with us is as comfortable as possible so please be sure to let us know of any considerations we should make for you.    Accommodation :     Chirk Bunkhouse is located in the village of Chirk which is a 15 minute drive from the site, we will provide a minibus to ferry you to and from the site daily and will be providing food for you. The Bunkhouse is a clean and well-kept scouts hall with a full kitchen, bunkbeds and small communal area. It is within walking distance of several pubs, restaurants and convenience stores. It is expected that you are considerate of your colleagues and accommodation during your stay (clean up after yourselves, be polite). You are of course welcome to arrange your own accommodation at your own expense.     Getting Here:   If you are travelling via train, please plan both your arrival and return via Wrexham General Railway Station. From Wrexham general you can either catch a taxi or take a four-minute walk down the road to the Station Approach bus stop to get the number 12 or 14 bus to Brymbo Enterprise Centre which runs every 30 mins. When you arrive at the enterprise centre you should see signage directing you on a down-hill five-minute walk to the site.  First Day:   You are required to be at the Brymbo Fossil Forest by 12pm the day you are due to start.

Pi ctish Trail Bringing a whole new dimension to the night is Pictish Trail who has resolutely furrowed his own path, steadily creating a unique catalogue of recordings & performances, while eschewing the blueprint of the predictable singer-songwriter in favour of something untidily intriguing. Pictish Trail has toured the world both as a headliner and as support for artists including Belle & Sebastian, Pavement, Mogwai, Sea Power, Slow Club and KT Tunstall, and he has performed at festivals including Glastonbury, Field Day, Bestival, Deer Shed, Celtic Connections, the Edinburgh Fringe and Green Man.

Bilingual Listing - Please Scroll Down for English Text Port Talbot Gotta Banksy Rhagfyr 2018, mae Banksy yn cyflwyno anrheg Nadolig unigryw i Bort Talbot pan mae un o’i furluniau yn ymddangos ar garej gweithiwr dur lleol gan roi sylw rhyngwladol i’r dref. 2024, mae Port Talbot yn y newyddion unwaith eto pan mae diwedd cynhyrchu dur drwy ffwrnais chwyth, diwydiant sydd mor hanfodol i’r dref, yn creu cyfnod newydd o ansicrwydd. Yn yr wythnosau ar ôl i waith celf Banksy ymddangos aeth Paul Jenkins a Tracy Harris o gwmni Theatr3 i siarad â phobl y dref. Fe gychwynnodd eu prosiect fel casgliad o ymatebion i’r Banksy cyntaf i ymddangos yng Nghymru, a dros chwe blynedd fe ddatblygodd yn bortread o gymuned ac yn deyrnged i’w hysbryd a’i gwytnwch. Nawr, daw lleisiau’r gymuned honno i flaen y llwyfan, gyda chast o actorion proffesiynol yn adrodd eu geiriau. Mae Port Talbot Gotta Banksy yn ddrama newydd bwysig am bobl, pŵer a chelfyddyd stryd. Mae’n ddathliad o gryfder cymunedau i wrthsefyll holl heriau bywyd. Ymunwch â ni wrth i bobl Port Talbot rannu eu stori nhw yn eu geiriau eu hunain, yn y ddrama bwerus, deimladwy gair-am-air hon. Perfformir y ddrama yn y Plaza, Port Talbot; Theatr y Grand, Abertawe; Theatr y Torch Aberdaugleddau a Thŷ Pawb, Wrecsam yn dilyn cyfnod yn Theatr y Sherman. Cyfarwyddwyd gan Paul Jenkins Cynhyrchir gan Theatr3 a Sherman Theatre. Cefnogir gan National Theatre Studio a gyda chyllid gan Gyngor Celfyddydau Cymru // December 2018, Banksy gifts Port Talbot a unique Christmas present making it an international talking point when one of his murals appears on the garage of a local steelworker. 2024, Port Talbot hits the headlines again with the end of blast furnace steel-making synonymous with the town and the beginning of a new uncertainty. In the weeks after Banksy’s artwork first appeared, Paul Jenkins and Tracy Harris of Theatr3 spoke to people across the town. What began as a project collecting responses to the first Banksy in Wales, over six years became a portrait of a community and a testament to its character and resilience. Now, the voices of this Welsh community take centre stage, their words performed live by a professional cast. Port Talbot Gotta Banksy is an urgent new play about people, power and street art. It’s a celebration of the strength of communities to withstand everything life has to throw at them. Join us as the people of Port Talbot share their story in their own words, in this compelling and compassionate verbatim play. Directed by Paul Jenkins. Produced by Theatr3 and Sherman Theatre, and supported by National Theatre Studio and with funding from Arts Council of Wales Information Source: Tŷ Pawb | eventbrite

English below Dadlennu Newid Hinsawdd: Gwahanu’r Gwir a’r Gau ar gyfer Gwadwyr ac Amheuwyr Dr David Sprake Uwch-ddarlithydd mewn Peirianneg Mae rhai pobl yn dal i honni mai rhyw fath o dwyll neu amrywiad naturiol yw newid hinsawdd. Beth yw’r gwirionedd? Ymunwch â ni i wrando ar ddarlith hollbwysig gan Dr David Sprake, a fydd yn trafod pam y mae llywodraethau a busnesau wedi bod mor araf yn mynd i’r afael â newid hinsawdd. Gan ddefnyddio’i ymchwil a’i brofiad addysgu sylweddol, bydd Dr Sprake yn dadansoddi’r grymoedd naturiol sy’n siapio ein hinsawdd, bydd yn olrhain tarddiad newidiadau hinsoddol y gorffennol a bydd yn asesu a yw newidiadau cyfredol yn cael eu sbarduno gan weithgareddau pobl. Bydd Dr Sprake yn cyflwyno archwiliad clir o newid hinsawdd, a fydd yn seiliedig ar dystiolaeth, gan drafod a gwrthbrofi damcaniaethau sy’n gwadu newid hinsawdd trwy gyflwyno data cadarn. Bydd y ddarlith hon yn cynnig cyfle gwerthfawr i ddeall yr wyddoniaeth, herio camdybiaethau a chydnabod yr angen taer am fesurau rhagweithiol i ddiogelu ecosystemau, economïau a dyfodol ein planed.

Canolbwyntiodd gradd PhD David ar y modd y gellir adeiladu neu ôl-osod ystadau tai mawr er mwyn sicrhau eu bod yn niwtral o ran carbon, trwy ddefnyddio ynni adnewyddadwy, trwy storio ynni a thrwy ddefnyddio gridiau clyfar. Mae’n beiriannydd ynni siartredig ac mae ganddo doreth o brofiad yn y diwydiant. Mae’n defnyddio’r profiad hwnnw mewn partneriaethau cydweithredol, megis asesu cyfleoedd ar gyfer ynni adnewyddadwy gyda’r Ymddiriedolaeth Genedlaethol a datblygu offer profi newydd ac arloesol ar gyfer busnesau lleol. “Fe allen ni fod wedi datrys newid hinsawdd 30 mlynedd yn ôl. Mae camwybodaeth wedi cyfrannu at ddal y ddynoliaeth yn ôl rhag rhoi sylw difrifol i’r mater, a’i ddatrys.” Cysylltwch â researchoffice@wrexham.ac.uk fydd yn eich helpu gydag unrhyw ymholiadau. _ ______________________________________________________________________________________________________ Climate Change Exposed: Separating Fact from Fiction for Deniers and Sceptics Dr David Sprake Senior Lecturer in Engineering Climate change is still dismissed by some as a hoax or mere natural variability.
