0:01:270:01:29

-Today is the International Day

-of Peace.

0:01:290:01:32

-It's a special day

-earmarked by the United Nations...

0:01:320:01:35

-..to celebrate peace among people

-and countries across the globe.

0:01:360:01:40

-Special events to mark the event

-were being held worldwide...

0:01:400:01:44

-..and our cameras were in Caernarfon

-this afternoon.

0:01:440:01:48

-Today in Caernarfon, we're marking

-the International Day of Peace...

0:01:480:01:52

-..by marching through the town.

0:01:530:01:54

-We're also marking 90 years since

-the women's peace pilgrimage...

0:01:560:01:59

-..walked these very streets.

0:02:000:02:02

-We have unveiled a slate...

0:02:030:02:05

-..and remembered

-the International Day of Peace.

0:02:050:02:09

-90 years to the day, a pilgrimage

-was made by women across Britain...

0:02:100:02:15

-..to Hyde Park in London.

0:02:150:02:17

-The local group in Caernarfon...

0:02:200:02:23

-..decided the first meeting

-would be in Penygroes.

0:02:240:02:27

-A slate was unveiled earlier this

-year to commemorate this event.

0:02:270:02:31

-Today in Caernarfon, we're

-commemorating the second meeting.

0:02:310:02:36

-They were stressing

-the need for peace...

0:02:360:02:39

-..and calling on nations to sit down

-and talk rather than go to war.

0:02:420:02:45

-It was part of the campaign to

-establish the United Nations...

0:02:460:02:51

-..and showed the prominent part

-women played in this work.

0:02:510:02:55

-Wave your flags.

0:02:550:02:57

-Raise your voices.

0:02:580:03:00

-Peace not swords.

0:03:010:03:03

-No to war and violence.

0:03:040:03:06

-We invited local schools

-to join us...

0:03:060:03:08

-..together with churches

-and various other societies.

0:03:090:03:12

-Everyone was happy

-to be part of the day.

0:03:120:03:15

-I'm sure there were 250 to 300

-people here.

0:03:160:03:19

-Essentially, we're here

-because we know war is wrong...

0:03:190:03:23

-..and that war endangers humanity.

0:03:240:03:27

-I strongly believe that peace

-is something we need to work on...

0:03:280:03:33

-..invest in and involve

-into every part of our lives.

0:03:370:03:40

-The call for peace is eternal.

0:03:410:03:43

-We must not be complacent

-or stop talking about it.

0:03:430:03:47

-Today is a great opportunity to hold

-hands on the Maes in Caernarfon...

0:03:470:03:51

-..a place that's seen plenty of

-protest and conflict itself.

0:03:520:03:55

-There is a great tradition here.

0:03:560:03:58

-# Walk with faith in our song

0:03:580:04:01

-# Onwards

0:04:010:04:05

-# Walk onwards #

0:04:060:04:09

-Thank you very much.

0:04:090:04:11

-I'm sure you'd agree that today is

-an important day across the globe.

0:04:130:04:19

-The musician, Mei Gwynedd,

-is my studio guest tonight.

0:04:200:04:24

-Mei has taken on the task

-of conducting a choir.

0:04:260:04:30

-However, this choir can't sing!

0:04:310:04:33

-Tell us more about your choir.

0:04:340:04:36

-It's called the Tuneless Choir.

0:04:370:04:40

-They can't sing but they have come

-to learn how to sing.

0:04:500:04:54

-The concept for a Tuneless Choir

-originated in Nottingham.

0:04:550:05:00

-A choir was created in Nottingham.

0:05:020:05:05

-They wanted people

-from all backgrounds...

0:05:090:05:13

-..to come together

-to sing twice a month.

0:05:170:05:20

-How did you get involved?

0:05:260:05:28

-I haven't got a background

-in choral singer.

0:05:310:05:35

-I received a phone call

-asking if I could do this task.

0:05:390:05:43

-I didn't expect that I would be

-doing it!

0:05:490:05:52

-How out of tune are they?

0:05:530:05:55

-I think the choir

-has been marketed well...

0:06:050:06:11

-..as some of the members can sing

-and others can't.

0:06:120:06:16

-It's a lot to do with confidence.

0:06:220:06:25

-Some haven't sung since school.

0:06:370:06:40

-Music can be very therapeutic.

0:06:420:06:44

-We sing for 90 minutes

-and they feel great after it.

0:07:050:07:09

-We all enjoy the karaoke too!

0:07:110:07:13

-Can you learn to sing?

0:07:240:07:26

-I think it's possible for you

-to learn how to sing properly.

0:07:290:07:34

-Most of the people in the choir are

-able to sing a little.

0:07:400:07:43

-Everyone sings at football matches.

0:07:440:07:46

-When you go to matches,

-you can hear that people can sing.

0:07:470:07:52

-You need to sing with confidence

-and like no-one is watching!

0:08:000:08:05

-We just hold the sessions to enjoy.

0:08:110:08:13

-It's good to have a focus.

0:08:180:08:20

-The term will run until

-the end of the year.

0:08:210:08:25

-Some 49 people turned up

-at the first session!

0:08:340:08:38

-I was stunned!

0:08:380:08:40

-They thought I was

-a trained singer.

0:08:500:08:53

-We've had two session but started to

-enjoy more at the second session.

0:08:570:09:02

-The choir rehearses at Aspire

-Fitness, Sanatorium Road, Cardiff.

0:10:000:10:04

-It's for people

-from every denomination...

0:10:490:10:52

-..and for those without a

-religious or spiritual life.

0:10:520:10:55

-Welcome back.

0:11:420:11:44

-We enjoy hearing from viewers

0:11:450:11:49

-Recently, David Toogood emailed us

-a story about his son, Macsen...

0:11:500:11:54

-..who lives with a kidney condition.

0:11:550:11:58

-Macsen is an inspiration to us all

-and Llinos went to find out more.

0:11:590:12:04

-I have come to Ysgol Gymraeg

-Teilo Sant in Llandeilo...

0:12:060:12:11

-..to meet a very special boy

-called Macsen Toogood.

0:12:120:12:15

-He has been very busy raising

-awareness about nephrotic syndrome.

0:12:160:12:21

-He has done this by showing off

-his sporting skills.

0:12:210:12:25

-Macsen is an eight-year-old boy

-here at Ysgol Teilo Sant.

0:12:280:12:33

-He suffers

-from nephrotic syndrome...

0:12:340:12:37

-..a condition which

-affects the kidneys.

0:12:380:12:41

-He's a lovely boy who always comes

-to school with a smile on his face.

0:12:410:12:45

-He always tries his very best

-at school.

0:12:460:12:48

-How does the condition affect

-his daily life at school?

0:12:490:12:52

-He has to got to Cardiff...

0:12:530:12:54

-..for check-ups and treatments

-every now and again...

0:12:550:12:58

-..but it hasn't

-affected his education.

0:12:590:13:02

-He inspires us all

-and it doesn't affect him.

0:13:030:13:07

-Macsen, a little birdie tells me

-you are very good at sport.

0:13:080:13:12

-Is that true?

0:13:130:13:13

-Is that true?

-

-Yes.

0:13:130:13:15

-Which sports do you play?

0:13:160:13:17

-Football, rugby, tennis and golf.

0:13:180:13:21

-You've also started a new sport.

0:13:210:13:24

-Yes, I've started to run

-for Amman Valley Harriers.

0:13:270:13:32

-He really enjoys all kind of sports.

0:13:330:13:36

-He is a very talented sportsman.

0:13:370:13:39

-A few months ago...

0:13:440:13:46

-..he represented the school at

-the three-county race in Carmarthen.

0:13:470:13:53

-He came third, a great achievement.

0:13:540:13:57

-You've already been successful

-at running.

0:13:590:14:01

-Yes.

0:14:020:14:03

-What have you won?

0:14:040:14:06

-I was fourth in the cross-country...

0:14:060:14:09

-..and third in the Ammanford race.

0:14:110:14:13

-What do you want to do

-when you grow up and leave school?

0:14:140:14:18

-I want to be a footballer.

0:14:190:14:21

-As well as his sporting

-achievements...

0:14:220:14:24

-..Macsen has been busy raising

-awareness about his condition...

0:14:240:14:28

-..and raising money

-for the charity, NeST.

0:14:280:14:31

-He does a lot of charity work

-and has so far raised 2,300.

0:14:320:14:36

-Over the summer,

-they will climb Snowdon.

0:14:360:14:40

-Everyone at Ysgol Teilo Sant is

-looking forward to hearing about it.

0:14:400:14:44

-Over the past year, Macsen

-has won many sporting trophies...

0:14:450:14:50

-..but he also won a bravery award

-from the Carmarthen Journal.

0:14:500:14:55

-Everyone at the school

-were very proud.

0:14:550:14:58

-He just doesn't let things

-faze him.

0:14:580:15:00

-He's a very level-headed child.

0:15:010:15:02

-Some of the drugs he's been taking

-have made him quite ill...

0:15:030:15:06

-..and he suffers from headaches.

0:15:060:15:08

-But he always goes to school and

-never, ever slacks off his sports.

0:15:090:15:12

-It's something

-he can get his teeth into...

0:15:120:15:14

-..and take him away

-from the actual illness.

0:15:150:15:17

-I think he's amazing.

0:15:180:15:19

-His determination and attitude

-towards the illness...

0:15:200:15:24

-..has been all positive.

0:15:240:15:26

-It was his idea to raise money.

0:15:260:15:28

-Whatever's knocked him down

-has become a positive.

0:15:290:15:31

-Of a child of that age,

-it's inspiring to us.

0:15:320:15:34

-It is.

0:15:340:15:36

-He inspires us

-rather than the other way around.

0:15:360:15:39

-Everyone here at Ysgol Teilo Sant

-are extremely proud of Macsen...

0:15:390:15:43

-..and of what he's achieved.

0:15:430:15:46

-I'm sure he'll achieve

-a lot more during his lifetime.

0:15:460:15:49

-Since filming with Macsen...

0:15:520:15:55

-..he and his father managed to reach

-the summit of Snowdon during August.

0:15:550:16:01

-They raised even more money

-for the NeST charity.

0:16:020:16:06

-What an inspirational lad and thanks

-to the family for sharing the story.

0:16:070:16:10

-How is your spelling?

0:16:100:16:12

-If your double 'n's cause you havoc

-in the Welsh language...

0:16:120:16:15

-..the Cysill software package

-could be of assistance to you.

0:16:160:16:19

-It was devised at Canolfan Bedwyr

-in Bangor University...

0:16:190:16:22

-..and the Welsh language centre

-is celebrating its 20th birthday.

0:16:220:16:26

-The centre was named in memory

-of Professor Bedwyr Lewis Jones...

0:16:260:16:30

-..for his contribution to the

-Welsh language at the university...

0:16:300:16:33

-..and his popular radio programme

-about the meaning of placenames.

0:16:330:16:37

-Celebrations will be held

-during the year at the centre...

0:16:370:16:41

-..and here's a taster for you.

0:16:410:16:44

-This centre is named after

-Bedwyr Lewis Jones...

0:16:450:16:47

-..as he did so much

-for the Welsh language.

0:16:470:16:51

-The centre's initial aim was to do

-as much it could for the language.

0:16:510:16:55

-There were three threads

-in the first business plan.

0:16:550:16:58

-The first thread

-was to service the university.

0:16:590:17:02

-The second was to service

-the public...

0:17:020:17:04

-..and the third was for schools

-and other outside education sectors.

0:17:050:17:10

-It's progressed into a very

-important centre in Wales...

0:17:100:17:14

-..and continues to flourish under

-the guidance of Dr Llion Jones.

0:17:140:17:18

-It's quite apt that

-we hold an open day.

0:17:180:17:21

-Since our establishment...

0:17:210:17:23

-..we offered services in research

-and technology for the university...

0:17:240:17:27

-..including the wider world.

0:17:280:17:30

-Bedwyr Lewis Jones' concept of

-servicing the wider community...

0:17:310:17:35

-..continues to be

-at the forefront for me.

0:17:350:17:38

-Every time I come to the centre...

0:17:390:17:42

-..I'm surprised by the enthusiasm

-and devotion of the entire staff.

0:17:430:17:48

-They carry out those things

-that were important to Bedwyr.

0:17:500:17:55

-It was an honour to cut the cake

-although I was slightly anxious.

0:17:560:18:04

-It looked very nice

-so it was a shame to cut it.

0:18:050:18:09

-We're looking forward

-to the next 20 years and beyond...

0:18:130:18:17

-..with all sorts of developments

-with courses and technology.

0:18:180:18:22

-Our door is always open at the

-centre for the general public.

0:18:230:18:28

-Happy birthday to the centre.

0:18:330:18:36

-Recently, at Sain Studios...

0:18:370:18:40

-..three sisters from Aberystwyth

-began recording their new album.

0:18:410:18:44

-Lisa Angharad, Gwenno Elan

-and Mari Gwenllian are Sorela.

0:18:440:18:48

-The harmonious trio sing backing

-vocals for their mother Linda Healy.

0:18:480:18:54

-They're very excited about the album

-and we were lucky to find out more.

0:18:540:18:59

-# When were one with the earth

0:19:010:19:08

-# When we were one

-with the wind and rain #

0:19:090:19:15

-This week, we've been in Caernarfon

-recording our debut album as Sorela.

0:19:160:19:21

-We sang on Mam's album and one of

-Yws Gwynedd's singles last year.

0:19:220:19:26

-But this is our first album

-and it's completely a cappella.

0:19:270:19:31

-We've kept to original tracks

-with lyrics and melodies by Lisa.

0:19:310:19:36

-Others have penned the lyrics

-and we've created the melodies.

0:19:380:19:42
