Friends of Cwmdu Music–concert preparations
Our concert this coming Saturday
We're looking forward to seeing those who have tickets for Saturday's concert with Rachel Podger. Here's a reminder of concert arrangements…
The concert is at 7:30pm (doors open 7:00pm), 9th March in St Michael and All Angels Church in Cwmdu, Powys which can be found by using postcode NP8 1RW in sat navs, (what3words tenure.drones.accordion) or Ordnance Survey SO 180 237.
Please note that there is no car parking at the church itself but there is a signed car park available, on the Talgarth (north) side of the village in the village hall car park (what3words broom.ears.dictation) which is less than 5 minutes walk from the church.
For those with blue badges or carrying passengers with mobility issues, we have alternative reserved car parking available nearer the church (just past the adjacent barn) (what3words streaks.spreading.compacts). Please reserve this in advance by emailing info@cwmdumusic.org. The main church entrance is via steps, however there is accessible access just to the right of the church (past the adjacent barn) and close to the accessible parking.
