From the Battle of Gower to the Great German Escape from the Welsh POW Camp, history is all around us and often we are too busy to notice. But behind the castles and POW barracks there are stories we need to hear and lessons we need to learn. malpope.com/the-welsh-pow-…

In the 1940s Bridgend crowdfunded a submarine (HMS Urge). 80 years later we’re crowdfunding a visitor centre to remember Bridgend and its WWII history 😍 gofund.me/7537b1a2

It is with great pleasure that the H9PG can announce that, due to our PUBLIC donations, we have today become the proud owners of our own Visitor Centre. Despite numerous false hope promises from various councils and organisations, to date, we have never received a single penny
