This commemorates lives lost in a mining disaster that killed dozens of men....some fathers and sons, brothers, ...their names are punched out of the metal.....Each and every one; a life lost , a future cut short....heartbreaking...

Temple of Peace and Health

Located in Cardiff city centre, the Temple of Peace first opened in 1938 and stands out as the venue with a heart. It is a Grade II listed building, is home to the Welsh Centre of International Affairs (WCIA) and is recognised as a symbol of Wales' concern for international peace: all profits generated from booking the Temple's Marble Hall go straight back into the WCIA.
