Mum's Army
In 1969 the mothers, grandmothers and daughters of Pembrey and Burry Port stood on the front line of a battle against the Ministry of Defence. A battle to save their local beach.
In 1969 the mothers, grandmothers and daughters of Pembrey and Burry Port stood on the front line of a battle against the Ministry of Defence. It was a battle to stop the quiet sands of Cefn Sidan from being transformed into a major weapons testing site. And whilst the men of the area went to work, it was up to the women to defend the battle lines. Mum's Army is the story of how the women of Carmarthenshire took their fight to the Ministry of Defence.
