  3. Millions pledged to revive Welsh centres — Swansea, Port Talbot, Haverfordwest, Porthcawl and Bridgend among winners

    Town and city centres across Wales are in line for a major facelift after the Welsh Government unveiled a £19.6m cash package. The funding, part of the Transforming Towns and Placemaking programmes, will target empty shops, tired public spaces and stalled developments — with South West Wales councils among the biggest winners.

    Swansea’s Biophilic Living gets fresh cash

    Swansea Council has secured more than £559,000 for the commercial and retail elements of the flagship Biophilic Living scheme, which promises 50 affordable homes alongside shops and offices in a nature‑inspired design.

    A further £1.36m is earmarked for the Mowbray Yard redevelopment, creating a new green courtyard space in the heart of the city centre.

    Port Talbot facelift for Aberafan Shopping Centre

    In Port Talbot, up to £840,000 will fund a redesign of the public realm outside the southern entrance of the Aberafan Shopping Centre, aiming to boost footfall and modernise the tired frontage.

    Haverfordwest Wilko site transformed

    Pembrokeshire County Council will receive more than £1.27m to redevelop the former Wilko store in Haverfordwest, part of the Western Quayside regeneration. A smaller grant of £100,000 will also support works at 16‑18 Bridge Street.

    Porthcawl seafront gets new events space

    Bridgend Council has secured £600,000 to create a new events space on the Hillsboro South site in Porthcawl, a key part of the seafront regeneration plans.

    Wyndham House overhaul for Bridgend town centre

    Bridgend will also benefit from £1.78m to acquire and refurbish Wyndham House, with housing association Valleys to Coast planning to transform the building into its new HQ alongside apartments and commercial units.

    Welsh Government hails “heart and soul” of communities

    Cabinet Secretary for Housing and Local Government Jayne Bryant said the funding would “breathe new life into our high streets, support local traders, and create the vibrant, welcoming spaces that our communities deserve.”

    "Canadian tycoon" complains that everyone got greedy, when it should only be the business owners who are.

  14. While #Wilko's unsecured creditors look likely to only get around 8% of their money, and the firm's company pension is suffering a likely £50m funding gap, its now clear that the family paid itself £9m in dividends since 2019... while profits halved.

    Hmmm.... not enough to make up the shortfall, but a rather different end-game form the company's pensioners & their suppliers.

    Ah - I'm going to miss this quality brand.

  16. #Wilko bid fails. The brand that claimed they only sold stuff that people need (even in the worst recession) is no more

  17. Meanwhile, trying to put a price on Britain's involvement in #Slavery continues....

    Patrick Robinson of the #UnitedNations has calculated that the UK owes around £18 trillion to the 14 countries most impacted by the #slavetrade.... but accepts that this is likely an underestimate.

    If countries *could* find a mechanism to force such a claim (and countries could go #bankrupt), the UK's days might be numbered - a bit like #wilko?

  18. Just been into #Wilko for probably the last time. I'm so sad for the staff as they've been properly done over. :blobsad:

  19. I'm in the office and there's just 3 guys here, who are in a different department but are very friendly and chatty. They've all just gone on a group trip to #Wilko to see if they can find any bargains and invited me along 😂 ngl I was very tempted

  20. Remember when #Brexit was supposed to herald in economic boom times? Why else would people have been tricked into voting for it (aside from the Xenophobia of course)

    Is our economy ever going to get better?

    RIP Wilko Johnson. Amongst his peers he was unique, with a style entirely his own, effortlessly cool.
