    Groups involved include Swansea Libraries and Swansea Asylum Seekers Support plus users of the council’s services for lifelong learning and for young adults with additional learning needs or learning disability.

    Thanks too to South Wales-based artist Natalie Hemingway who helped them – and to Y Storfa contractors Kier who funded the art project.

    The artwork is inspired by the heritage, humanity and diversity of Swansea city centre.

    It’s part of the Your Store, Your Story project, telling stories of the building – once a BHS – and the immediate area.

    Your Store, Your Story is being managed by the council’s cultural services team with funding by Y Storfa main contractors Kier and input from other council teams & community groups.

    Y Storfa is being developed by the council – and is due to open as a community services hub, including central library, this year.

    Funders of the building’s transformation include the Welsh Government Transforming Towns programme.
