Dinner and RYLA speaker at the Baron

Wed, Nov 23rd 2016 at 7:30 pm - 9:30 pm

Tonight we welcomed Lewys Philips who completed the RYLA ( Rotary Youth Leadership Award ) course in Brecon in July.....


We were very pleased to welcome Lewys this evening and were inspired by his talk. The enthusiasm for the course came through his words and photos as he talked about his experiences during the packed 5 days. On the first day the attendees were given basic leadership training and the next four days they put that training into practice with caving, gorge walking, canoeing and finishing with a challenge day. On the latter day they had to build a canoe from polystyrene and all their team building and leadership skills were put into practice. An action packed and exciting week.....

Lewys was an inspiring young man and a confident speaker who would strongly recommend this course to anyone aged 16/17. We have one free place for next year so who do you know that could benefit like Lewys? See RYLA website for more information on this excellent course at the Storey Centre in Brecon.....
