Dear Club members;
As you may be all aware the current situation with the coronavirus 19 outbreak has dampened our ability to continue with monthly club meetings and the indoor flying. Mr S.Pugh-Jones has been in contact with J.Davies and decided that due to the current situation of the outbreak and for the safety of all members, with immediate effect to cancel using this facility at Gwenllian Sports Centre in Kidwelly until further notice.Please note that the BMFA have also mentioned caution with regards to indoor flying from an e-mail I received from BMFA admin.
Outdor flying will carry on as normal at Pembrey as the BMFA believe "In general terms model flying represents a low risk activity due to the predominantly outdoor nature of the activity and the opportunity to maintain inter-personal separation".I encourage all members to attend where possible even if it is to get fresh air or to greet other members in a safe enviroment.
Myself and J.Davies have also spoken and have decided to cancel April's club meeting and to postpone any further meetings if neccesary until it is safe to do so.
Unfortunately numerous club members may have to self-isolate at this current time due to their age and I ask that everyone keep in touch via phone, e-mail or the whats app group to ensure all other members that we will get through these tough times ahead.
If any member may require some assistance of any kind during self-isolation please dont hesitate to get in contact.
Regards
Christian Anderson
Club Secretary

WhatsApp Contact Group
Submitted by jon davies on Sat, 2019-11-09 16:14
Hi everyone.
In our last meeting I asked if it would be possible to set up a what’s app group for the club. This group would allow easy communication between the clubs members. Using the WhatsApp group gives members the ability to be able to message other members individually or as the whole group.
E.g any group member could ask in one message if any other members will be flying at Pembrey or our other site without taking the chance that others may turn up on the day. Information can be easily shared.
If anyone is interested in joining the group. Please contact me by phone, email or text and l will include you in the group.
Thanks

About us
The Llanelli Model Flying Club was formed some 50+ years ago by a small group of enthusiasts, and from those humble beginnings has grown to the point where we have nearing seventy members of all ages and two flying sites.
