Local Assembly Member Paul Davies has recently hosted the 2013 Urdd Gobaith Cymru Message of Peace and Goodwill event at the Senedd recently. Since 1922 the young people of Wales have shared a Peace & Goodwill Message with the world, and the Urdd continues to do so annually every May. The message is an inspiration for the Urdd's humanitarian work locally and nationally.
Paul Davies said, "I was delighted to host the Urdd Peace and Goodwill event at the Senedd especially as this year, the Urdd Eisteddfod will be held in Pembrokeshire. The Eisteddfod gives young performers the opportunity to develop their talent and provides them with a platform to perform – and that is something that I believe should be celebrated. However, it is also important to recognise that the Urdd as an organisation undertake some important humanitarian work across Wales, and that is something that needs to be celebrated too."
He added, "I now look forward to the Eisteddfod, which I'm sure will be a tremendous success. Pembrokeshire provides a beautiful backdrop for this event and I look forward to seeing as many people as possible in Boncath. It's a fantastic day out for all the family and I encourage the people of Pembrokeshire to show their support by coming along."
