What a fabulous day at the CAER Garden Open Day yesterday to celebrate #VolunteersWeek! The sun was shining, people were getting creative enjoying the garden in good company with good food! A big CAER thank you to everyone who came along and to everyone who made it happen! 👏🪴💚

And we’re off! Day 1 of the Trelai Park Dig 2024 and it’s great to be back! We de-turfed both trenches and in Trench 1 found the Bronze Age roundhouses identified in 2022/23. We even had our first piece of Bronze Age pot! What else is waiting for us? Stick around to find out!

1/ On site today, reflecting why I love our CAER Heritage community digs so much: every year I get to see a community re-created; friendships both new & rekindled; the exchanging of ideas & experiences; Cardiff University students working closely with ACE community...

2/... the conversations, the laughs, the smiles; the sharing of new discoveries & skills;  archaeology & community in synergy, co-creating new knowledge & new pasts together - it's why community heritage matters so much...

3/ ...yesterday we welcomed our new-ish (she joined us in January) CAER Heritage team member to Trelai site, her first time experiencing the community buzz of CAER Heritage dig for our awesone ACE Caer Development Officer Lois Atkinson ....

Our CAER Heritage community dig open day was a huge success on Saturday (648 visitors!). But a new week, & the dig moves on! Today we were helped by the fab, engaged & knowledgeable Herbert Thompson pupils, tomorrow Trelai Primary will be getting involved! ACE Peter Bradbury

Day 17 CAER Heritage ACE community dig, (I was there!) But here's the captain's log from @IronAgeOlly: "Frantic digging & recording as we near the end of this year's dig. Still time for lots of visitors & volunteers & lovely finds including most of a Bronze Age pot!"

Wow! Amazing to see Eluned Morgan choose our wonderful CAER Heritage ACE Centre to make her first speech as new leader of Welsh Labour & to chat with local people 🙂 Many congratulations Eluned, you are very welcome anytime! Peter Bradbury Cardiff University Lois Atkinson
