MYRTLE HOUSE

Creating lasting change through compassion, creativity, and connection

Our Work

Myrtle House Ltd is a registered charity and social impact organisation based in Llanelli, South West Wales. With deep roots in local community action, we respond to urgent needs while building long-term solutions - through early years education, food access, wellbeing initiatives, and meaningful employment opportunities.

We deliver community-driven projects that support children, families, and individuals through childcare, food access, wellbeing services, and social enterprise.

Myrtle House Nursery

Trusted childcare that helps families thrive.

Myrtle House Nursery provides high-quality, affordable childcare for children aged 0–5 in a safe, inclusive, and nurturing environment. With over 20 years of service, the nursery remains a cornerstone of support for working families in Llanelli.

Our team of experienced, caring staff support every child’s development through creative learning, play-based activities, and tailored care. As a charitable nursery, all surplus is reinvested into improving services and supporting families who need it most.

  • Full and part-time childcare

  • Early Years Foundation Stage framework

  • Creative and inclusive environment

Llanelli Food Project

Together, Building a Future Where Everyone Has Enough

The Llanelli Food Project began as Llanelli Foodbank and has grown into a holistic, community-led network offering food support, advice, skills development, and volunteering opportunities. This includes the Pathways Project, which brings these strands together into a joined-up programme focused on food, wellbeing, and connection, while also creating opportunities for people to learn new skills and get involved through volunteering. 

Our approach includes:

  • Llanelli Foodbank: Emergency food and essential supplies for individuals and families in crisis

  • Money Support Project: Supporting people in financial crisis through advice, advocacy, and coaching—including our CMA Connect Centre at Myrtle House, which offers debt advice, budgeting support, benefits guidance, and coaching to build long-term financial resilience

  • Community Life Hubs: Local access points offering coordinated wraparound support

  • Wraparound Support: Signposting, debt and benefits advice, and wellbeing referrals

  • Volunteer Pathways: Meaningful roles that build skills, confidence, and connection

  • Pathways Project: A joined-up programme made possible through UK Shared Prosperity Fund support. It includes Community Table, a welcoming café and kitchen offering meals, workshops and volunteering, and a community garden where people grow food, connect with others, and support their wellbeing.

Through trusted relationships, strong partnerships, and the insight of our Lived Experience Advisory Panel (LEAP), we are creating a more just and supportive community for all.
