21.05.2021 update: Excellent news everyone your fantastic support has meant that we have reached our first target of £10000. We are
continuing to raise funds so we can produce a monument project that will truly reflect our formidable pioneering heroine.
It is now agreed that the statue will be sited in the village garden which has been kindly donated by Lles Llangrannog Welfare Committee. The site is next to Bancyfelin Chapel partly funded by Cranogwen after touring America and is across the road from her grave.
If you are a relative or know of anyone related to Cranogwen please can you let us know.
Look out for our next community event in June 2021 on Facebook or Follow and contribute to our Instagram cerfluncranogwenmonument
Best wishes and please keep sharing and donating, Anne-Marie, Helena, Carys and Kat.
