The future is now green in Barmouth as youngsters celebrate the completion of their bottle greenhouse.

It has taken over 40 children just under 8 months to build a greenhouse with nearly 1,000 plastic bottles.

And now the finished product has been transported to the grounds of Ysgol y Traeth in Barmouth, where crop planting has already begun.

Thanks to funding from the High Sheriff’s Crimebeat Fund and assistance from L and L DIY and Huws Gray builders merchants, PCSO Darren Walters and the youngsters from Barmouth Youth Club were able to build the greenhouse

PCSO Walters explained: “The idea of the project was to get the police to integrate with the young people, as well as to raise the profile of the youth club, which is in danger of closing.”

“It has resulted in a lot of community involvement and it has been great in getting everyone to work together on what has turned out to be an excellent project.”

“It is something that has brought the school and the youth club closer together and it is a project the youngsters can build on for the future.”

Barmouth-greenhousejpg_500x375Bellach mae’r dyfodol yn wyrdd yn Y Bermo wrth i bobl ifanc yr ardal ddathlu cwblhau adeiladu eu tŷ gwydr sydd wedi’i wneud allan o boteli.

Mae wedi cymryd ychydig llai na 8 mis i dros 40 o blant adeiladu’r tŷ gwydr gyda bron i 1000 o boteli plastig.

Erbyn hyn mae’r tŷ gwydr wedi’i leoli ar dir Ysgol y Traeth yn Y Bermo, ac maent wedi dechrau plannu planhigion ynddo yn barod.

Diolch i nawdd gan PACT a chymorth gan L&L DIY a masnachwyr defnyddiau adeiladu Huws Gray, roedd SCCH Darren Walters a’r bobl ifanc o Glwb Ieuenctid Y Bermo yn gallu adeiladu’r tŷ gwydr.

Meddai SCCH Walters: “Y bwriad y tu ôl i’r prosiect oedd ceisio cael y bobl ifanc i ymgysylltu â’r Heddlu, yn ogystal â chynyddu proffil y clwb ieuenctid, sydd mewn perygl o gau.”

“Mae ‘r prosiect wedi golygu llawer o waith cymunedol ac mae wedi bod yn wych cael pobl i weithio gyda’i gilydd ar beth sydd wedi troi allan i fod yn brosiect ardderchog.”

“Mae’n rhywbeth sydd wedi dod â’r ysgol a’r clwb ieuenctid yn agosach at ei gilydd ac mae’n brosiect y gall y bobl ifanc ei ddatblygu ymhellach yn y dyfodol.”
