Month: August 2020

We’re pleased to see the initiative return for Summer 2022! This year Zoe Murphy will be the lead co ordinator and promises to deliver a mixed bag of activities for all ages to enjoy!

The Phoenix Centre’s Local People Project delivers a five-week ‘Summer Club’ programme to keep children socially connected and active during the summer break.

Every week we deliver a variety of sessions to help the children learn new skills. From cookery to football, we’ve got a fun five-week programme for our local children.

We would like to give a massive thank you to the below companies/individuals for helping us deliver such a great programme for the community –

Leanne Dower, Laura Melville, Ethan Goatley, Chris Houlihan, Christopher Norman, Normsbury Marketing, Forest School, The Phoenix Cafe, Townhill Community School & Swansea Council.

Below you can meet members who helped create this website.

Hi, my name is Laura Melville I am 35 years old.

I have lived in Townhill since I was 14 and I have always worked closely with the local community.

I am Chair of the ‘friends of paradise park’ group and I also run the summer playscheme. I am also a member of the steering group for the Local People Project.

Due to covid 19 our annual playscheme couldn’t go ahead as planned and when I was approached to run the Townhill Summer Club, I was over the moon.

I feel the children of Townhill and Mayhill need these activities so I was very pleased with the aspect of starting a new summer club.

We try and vary our sessions so there is something for every child to enjoy and learn a new skill. We have run cooking, funky pump, website and social media, football, crafts, and forest school full-day sessions…The children have all enjoyed this five-week programme.

Every day we take part in a community mile walk around Townhill and Mayhill area and we have great numbers turning up without fail. Ages range is from 2-69 so it is something for everyone and I have loved seeing the kid’s faces when we have a surprise visit from Spiderman and Captain America from SuperHero Patrol.

Thanks for a great summer everyone!
