An item received too late to appear in this week's B&R tells us that the Brecknock Society has arranged 'A Portrait of Richard Livsey', a meeting open to all, to commemorate the life of the former MP who died a year ago this month.

Four speakers will introduce facets of his life and career and members of the public who have an interesting story to contribute are invited to add their voices in person. If you wish to do so call Gwyneth Evans on 01874 622352 or e-mail [email protected]">[email protected].

The event takes place on Tuesday, September 13 at 6.45pm at St Mary's Church, Brecon.
