In the late 1990s Talgarth Trust was started by a small group of volunteers to help revitalise the town following the traumatic winding down and closure of the mid-Wales Hospital, one of the town's main employers. Talgarth Tourist Information Centre was set up as part of the Trust which had ceased by 2000, but the Centre continued as a Community Association. By 2004 the organisation had grown to e

ncompass many new ventures and was renamed Talgarth Information and Resource Centre. Originating with tourist information, the centre has gone from strength to strength now catering for many local people who require information such as train/bus timetables, doctors, library, church, theatre programmes etc. The Centre is a valuable source of information in the Town for locals and visitors alike. As well as having information regarding local events, we also have a key to St Gwendonline’s Church which may be borrowed from us by visitors, and there is also a RADAR key for the public toilets.

Talgarth Visitor Centre windows are looking splendid for the D-Day anniversary on June 6th. There's alot of information (as you would expect) about that time and a competition to see how many you soldiers you can find hidden in the display. Congratulations to our volunteers, Heather and Brian Summerfield, who created the window display.
Heather was recently presented with the Powys Silver Kite award in recognition of her contribution to volunteering in Talgarth and her work as a foster carer. We are very lucky to have them both on the TVC team.
