This year's Sir John Lloyd lecture given by Professor Helen Fulton was a fascinating trip into the elite of medieval Brecon. Excellent to hear how brecknocksociety.wales is promoting Welsh history in schools

Great to meet up with some of the wonderful staff MFCC in Newtown on Thursday. It is such a privilege during my year of office to highlight the support they give to victims of domestic abuse and their families. Their work saves lives

Most enjoyable lunch with the Welshpool magistrates - one of the outstanding benches in England and Wales. An opportunity to thank them all, and especially outgoing Chair, Stephen Pembroke

This Saturday's walk was in the extreme north of the county - Lake Vyrnwy with the damage wrought by Storm Darragh, the peace of Pennant Melangell and its shrine and the delightful Llanrhaeadr-ym-Mochnant

St Oswald's in Oswestry was the magnificent setting for Shropshire's inspiring legal service, where I was delighted to join my colleagues from Shropshire, Worcestershire and Herefordshire

Our retained firefighters play an essential role in keeping our communities safe. Such a privilege to acknowledge the commitment and dedication of all the team at Talgarth, but especially 4 watch managers from across Powys who between them have served 166 years as volunteers! 🙏

The Westenders are so much a part of Brecon life, producing an annual pantomime for the last 77 years. They have exciting plans to refurbish their premises. We all need to get behind them - to ensure their ongoing success, and to create facilities to benefit the wider community

Honoured to have Prof Jane Monckton Smith OBE deliver a powerful lecture in #Brecon this evening. Exceptionally impactful, and I hope it will keep the conversation about domestic abuse uppermost in people's minds. A big thank you to Jane, and all who came along. Calan DVS MFCC
