In the charity's own words
The aim of the CIO is the promotion of community participation in healthy recreation for the benefit of the inhabitants of Talgarth and District by the provision of facilities for playing lawn bowls. The club's capacity for involving the community has been severely curtailed in 2020 but we have a number of Centenary events planned for 2021 which will involve club members and the wider community.
