In the charity's own words

We are a charitable community-based organisation, and are focused on restoring and developing Aberdaron's historic grade II water mill.Our plan is to use the restored asset for educational, tourism and heritage purposes. Our vision is for school-children to grind locally grown corn into flour and bake bread in the adjacent Islyn Bakery, and for visitors to share this experience.
