Welcome to my online diary, enjoy your stay!
In November 2005 whilst home recovering from an operation I decided to try and design a web page for White Springs Fisheries in Pontarddulais I added an info page on the fishery website page, but as I got more and more involved in community projects, I decided to start this blog in order to keep my community activities and involvement seperate to the fishing. You can email me with comments at slloydjanes@aol.com
Info about me
I am involved in the Llanelli CAB
I am the current secretary of the Hendy Pool and Parks Committee
I am also a member of the Pontarddulais and Hendy District Carnival Committee. Which will be celebrating its 40th year this year.
I have been a member of USDAW since 1989 and I am the Llanelli Usdaw Union Branch Secretary, I have done a lot of campaigning with Usdaw and I often appear in the quarterly magazine that gets published and sent to Usdaw Members, here's just one example
I have also been Hendy community councillor on Llanedi Community Council since 2004 and as a councillor, I also represent the council as a member of the Hendy School Govenoring Body.
The contents of this site is written and published by Stephen Lloyd-Janes of Iscoed Road Hendy who will be a Labour and Co-op candidate for the local County Council elections on May 1st 2008
Was just reading my emails, (as i had about fifty to sort out in my inbox), before i went out to deliver some more both sides news letters and labour rose about tommorrow's meeting, when Usdaw central office rung me www.usdaw.org.uk
The gent on the phone said he was going to use some photos of me in the next edition of the unions magazine sent to members? he started describing the photos and it turned out he had lots
there was the one from the promotion of the respect sign that Tesco's stuck up at customer service with Gavin and myself and the Llanelli MP Nia Griffith, i had posted the photo on my blog in april

Then he had one of myself and Bippin from the llanelli branches 30 years service award presentation. The branch held an evening for three members from the Ammanford Co-op
Then he had photos of myself and Gavin when we attended the last spotlight day at Tesco Portalbot, with several of the reps from the Portalbot Store. Haven't seen those photos, but memories came flooding back from the twelve weeks that Gavin and myself done.
I did put an entry about our day on my blog back in March

Hendy Park
Last September children’s play equipment was removed from the park for reasons of safety.
Your local Labour Party has been concerned about the time it has taken to reinstall play equipment in the park. Cllr Steve Lloyd–Janes and Nia Griffith MP have both been pursuing this matter and have been told that brand new play equipment is to be installed in June.
