The Women of West Wales project, started by Narberth Museum, showcased video poems made in tribute at Llangwmlitfest last week. Women featured included Sarah Jacob, the Fasting Girl, who died in Pencader in Carmarthenshire in 1867, aged just 12.
The BBC website covered the event here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-wales-49300083?fbclid=IwAR0f1YZWqYvGuLc1RFvUrbLAm8R3qAyFZGZW7sVwYFz9Og6rlfk67nlztgc.
The project continues for another three years and is now moving on to focus on Women In Carmarthenshire, with a talk by renowned local historian Mary Thorley, at Narberth Museum on 19th September, called The Naming of Women https://www.facebook.com/events/619334045245402/
