Year 1 Annual Report (2018-2019)

The Annual Report 2019 provides progress against the Well-being Plan for the period April 2018 to March 2019.

To help you know who is on the PSB Board members have made 14 short films which we hope you will find useful as a quick way to find out what we have been doing in 2018/19.

Geraint Evans tells you about some the development work the Board is doing.
Angharad Collins talks about the PSB Graduate and the work we are doing together.

There are seven well-being objectives for Torfaen which the PSB feel it can deliver improvements on over the next 25 to 30 years. As well as the written report we have produced ‘at a glance’ sections and a film for each of these well-being objectives and they can be viewed below.
