THE MILFORD YOUTH MATTERS (MYM) team has resumed work on the Hubberston Green and Rectory Avenue Family Routes Project.

The initiative focuses on expanding the green space and developing new boardwalk paths as part of a wider effort to improve access and enjoyment for local families.

Volunteers spent the day digging out and constructing paths, shovelling stone, moving wheelbarrows, and planting bulbs โ€” despite the very muddy conditions.

A spokesperson for MYM said the effort was a real team achievement: โ€œEveryone who took part played a big role in todayโ€™s job. It was fantastic to see the community come together again to make a difference.โ€

The group extended thanks to all MYM volunteers, along with Paul, Liz, Jean, Peter and their families, Hubberston and Hakin Community Centre, and Hubberston and Hakin Hands Together for their continued support.

Further development on the Hubberston Green and Rectory Avenue site is planned in the coming weeks as the project continues to grow.

MID AND WEST WALES Fire and Rescue Service has paid tribute to its Joint Fire Control Centre staff as part of International Control Room Week, which runs from October 27 to November 2.

The week celebrates the unseen professionals who answer 999 calls, often becoming the calm and reassuring voice heard in moments of crisis.

โ€œThey are the voice of reason in the darkest moments,โ€ said a spokesperson for the service. โ€œOur control operators give lifesaving advice, manage several incidents at once, and make sure the right crews and equipment reach the right place at the right time.โ€

Based at the Joint Fire Control Centre in Carmarthen, the team handle emergency calls for the whole Mid and West Wales region, covering counties from Pembrokeshire to Powys. Their work supports firefighters on the ground and plays a vital role in keeping communities safe.

Area Manager and Corporate Head of Emergency Response, Siรดn Slaymaker, visited the control room this week to meet the team and thank them for their commitment.

โ€œItโ€™s been a privilege to see first-hand the professionalism and teamwork that go into every call,โ€ he said. โ€œThey truly are the unsung heroes of our service.โ€

Our Story

At the Herald, we cover stories from the whole of Pembrokeshire, bringing you all the news and issues that affect you in our wonderful county. The Herald will be free of political bias and will be written for the people and from the people. We welcome stories from everyone in the county and will give everyone a fair chance to have their say on issues large and small that affect our day-to-day lives. The Herald promises to report fairly and accurately on the issues and stories that arise. Launching a brand new newspaper title could be seen as a brave venture in this uncertain economic climate, but we at the Herald see a growing need for a county-wide voice for you, the readers. What we promise you is a champion for your concerns and causes, a forum to voice issues, and a place of record for the news within the county. This will range from the burning local issues, through reports from the courts, decisions and discussions from local government, or โ€“by no means least - the day-to-day stories of the people of Pembrokeshire. We will endeavour to report on the happy events which take place in all our towns and communities, from the smallest function to the most high profile events. We promise to report on stories throughout the county; whether in Haverfordwest, Tenby, Milford Haven, Neyland, Pembroke and Pembroke Dock, Narberth, Crymych, Fishguard and Goodwick, St Davidโ€™s, Kilgetty, Newport, or any of the smaller communities and villages. We will also not shirk from covering and investigating the often less palatable aspects of life; a newspaper needs to reflect every aspect of life in the area it serves, a mirror to the busy lives we all lead. We want the Herald to be the first thing you, the reader, turns to when they want to know what is happening in Pembrokeshire. We hope you will join us.
