The Danescourt Community Association, formerly the Danescourt Residents Association has the interests of the residents of Danescourt at it heart. It continues the original aims and over the last 30 years, it has supported, lobbied for, objected to, and been the voice of the residents of Danescourt for many issues.

The DCA also contributes to the North West Cardiff Group (NWCG) along with Creigiau and Pentyrch Community Council, St Fagan’s Community Council, Radyr & Morganstown Society and the Llandaff Civic Society and has links with the Cardiff Civic Society. The NWCG, is a group of mostly professional or retired professional people that want Cardiff to be the best city it can be. Over the last few years it has put in many hours with suggestions and objections to the Local Development Plan, proposals for the metro and is in a constant battle to get the highway and transportation infrastructure improved for the housing developments that are taking place in the north west of Cardiff.

If you would like to play a part in your community please come and join us on the third Monday of every month at St John’s Hall, Danescourt at 8pm. You do not have to join the committee but if you feel you could offer your time please come along. We regularly have the Councillors in attendance and there are often updates from the North West Cardiff Group and the Police And Communities Together (PACT) meetings.

Lionel Pollard PDF Print E-mail

It was with sadness that Linda and Edgar Gibbs went to the funeral service of Lionel Pollard on Friday 28th June 2024 at St John's Church, Danescourt.

For many years Lionel was a Committee member of Danescourt Community Association (formerly Danescourt Residents Association). He brought with him an in-depth knowledge of traffic management, especially traffic signs, and was also a regular attendee at Police and Communities Together (PACT) meetings.

Lionel always made a valuable contribution at these meetings. 

 

Others will remember him as a regular and enthusiastic allotment worker.

 

It was great to see a number of former DCA Committee members at the funeral.

Lionel will be remembered for his contribution to the community, his lovely West Country lilt and the twinkle in his eye, fondly recalled by his daughters.
