Listen to Gwyneth Jones..

"Today has been organised through some funding that we had from the 'Keep Warm Keep Well this Winter' campaign from Age Concern Cymru, a small pot of money but it's enabled us to put on this event.

We wanted to target the north of the county.

We try and take roadshows to various parts of Ceredigion and we decided that we would target Tregaron.

So we've come here to the Talbot today, 24 stands from Ceredigion, different organisations with different services that they can provide for older people, their carers and their families.

It's an opportunity for people to have a look and see what is available, maybe their circumstances are that they don't need any help at this time but it could be that they will need some support and today has been an opportunity for them to see what is available for when the time does come that they do need the support.

Also they may have neighbours , friends and family that they might feel that some of the information here today could help them.

It's been a good day for people to pick up information and learn about what is happening within Ceredigion.

There's a lot of concern in Ceredigion that older people are struggling, especially regarding income, and the benefits that are not being taken up is a concern for us as an organisation.

Today has been an opportunity, perhaps, to show people that we're an organisation that can help them.

We can do a benefit check for people, we can show them that there is more money out there to perhaps enable them to afford to heat their own homes.

It is a concern with the rise in fuel costs. Today, actually, we did try and target some people to fill in some questionnaires so we could really get a feel of the situation.

Fuel increases have gone up so considerably and pension increases haven't.

So it is a concern that we are having people living in poverty in Ceredigion, aren't able to afford to heat their living rooms and able to eat, and heat their homes at the same time.

So today, perhaps, has gone a little bit of the way of spreading the word of what is available for people.
