Welcome to the Pembroke 21C website

Pembroke 21C is Pembroke's Community Association Making Pembroke a Vibrant Community

        Can Pembroke Make a Difference?

 The general agreement at the open evening held in Foundry House, Pembroke on 15th October was Yes, Pembroke can make a difference to its impact on the environment. 

The highlight of the evening was a panel discussion chaired by Angela Burns AM to examine that particular question and many other issues raised by the enthusiastic audience.  Other members of the prominent panel were Peter Davies, Vice-Chair of the Sustainable Development Commission for Wales, Andy Middleton, Founder Director of The TYF Group, and Rhodri Thomas, Development Officer for Cynnal Cymru.

The Seventh Annual Pembroke Festival

was unanimously declared a success. Down on Pembroke’s historic South Quay a large marquee housed a variety of music events held every evening.  Planet Abba entertained a large crowd of Abba fans on the Friday evening and the free Rock Night on Saturday 4th July ended with the spectacular firework display (pictured above) from the ramparts of Pembroke Castle. For more information and photographs take a look at our .Festival Page

Our Third Potato Festival

We were overwhelmed by the massive response to our Potato Festival which was held for the third year running in Pembroke’s Town Hall on June 7th .  It just gets better and better!

Farmers' Markets

The Farmers' Markets are held fortnightly in Pembroke Town Hall from 9.30am to 1.30pm. The markets have grown steadily since they began in the summer of 2006, gaining new producers each year and a loyal and increasing customer base from all over South Pembrokeshire.

Please go to our Farmers Market Page for more details .

The Sustainable Energy Group

Pembroke Can Make A Difference! is designed to encourage the community to change their lifestyles and lower their impact on the environment. The group are carrying out a “lifestyle questionnaire” of the community to set a baseline from which to measure the change.

The Pembroke Story Heritage Project

and building up an archive of old photographs. A new Local History Group has now been formed to carry on the good work!

Consulting our Community

Pembroke 21C Trustees and the Directors of Pembroke 21C Community Interest Company are very aware of the need to consult you, the community.  The work that they initiate in Pembroke for the benefit of its residents must be based on what you want and need. However, consultation is a process and not an event!  So in addition to seeking your views in Foundry House, in Network and through this website we are planning a full consultation of all our stakeholders over the coming two years. 

To find out more click here to visit our Pembroke Action Plan page which has been created to keep you in touch with what is going on.
