# Gwenda Wilkin

Gwenda Wilkin (20 May 1933 – 6 May 2020) was a British accordionist. Born in Walthamstow on 20 May 1933, Gwenda was the only child of Frederick Wilkin (1904-1989) and Lillian Gladys Turner (1905-1995). After a visit to the Royal Albert Hall, a very young Gwenda wanted to play the organ so she started piano lessons. At 10 years old she was given an accordion for the first time and it immediately felt familiar to her. Her aptitude for the instrument meant she progressed rapidly in her lessons and she started performing at charity concerts within 3 years. In 1947 she won the British Junior Accordion Championship in St Pancras Town Hall in London. The following year in 1948 she won the British Junior and Open Accordion Championship. In 1949 Gwenda represented Britain in the Accordion World Championship in Spa, Belgium securing an impressive 6th position for her young age. She competed again in 1950 in Milan, Italy and won the bronze medal.
In the summer of 1950 Gwenda rose to stardom playing at venues throughout Britain and in 1952 she was asked to join ENSA (later called the CSE) by Gracie Fields to tour internationally entertaining the British Troops. Gwenda spent most of the 1950s touring abroad performing for Troops with Gracie Fields and Vera Lynn who both became lifelong friends. Vic Evans and Chester Harriot accompanied Gwenda throughout her African tour and became her firm friends until their respective deaths, speaking on the telephone every week into old age.
Gwenda appeared on one of the very first episodes of Opportunity Knocks which was first aired by the BBC in 1949. She was regular artist on BBC Radio shows like Have A Go and Workers Playtime, Midday Musical Hall, and Variety Bandbox.
The Royal Family noticed Gwenda through her Radio and TV appearances and she become a favourite of the Queen Elizabeth The Queen Mother who often invited her to perform at Clarence House and for the garden parties at Buckingham Palace.
Throughout the 1960s and 1970s Gwenda spent most of her time performing in the UK so she could spend more time with her two young children. She was a supporter of the Not Forgotten Association and the Chelsea Pensioners.
Gwenda retired from show business towards the end of the 1970s due to health problems and returned to school to study veterinary practise and animal husbandry. She qualified in 1985 and practised with local veterinary surgeries until her retirement in 2005. Gwenda died on 6 May 2020 in North Middlesex Hospital from complications following surgery.

# Democratic Republic of the Congo–Turkey relations

Democratic Republic of the Congo–Turkey relations are the bilateral relations between the Democratic Republic of the Congo and Turkey. Turkey has an embassy in Kinshasa since 1974, and the DR Congo opened its embassy in Ankara in 2011.

## History

Turkey initially supported Leopold II’s pledge to “civilize” Congo, and recognized Congo Free State after the Berlin Conference in 1885. This changed quickly after the public outcry in Turkey and other countries over harsh labor practices and atrocities committed against Congolese, who lived in a humiliatingly strict system of segregation, by the Belgians. King Leopold II of Belgium would go on personally owning the Congo Free State from 1885 to 1908.
Following independence, Turkey was one of the first to establish diplomatic relations with DR Congo. Turkey, through mainly TIKA launched many programs, worth US$ 137 million in economic aid during the next 30 years.
Despite its stance against coups d’état, Turkey quickly recognized the Mobutu Sese Seko government, following the United States on November 24, 1965. Relations deteriorated when Mobutu broke diplomatic relations with Israel in 1973. Despite the otherwise unfriendly relations at the time, both governments continued to support the Frente Nacional de Libertação de Angola and the Uniã Nacional para a Independência Total de Angola against the Movimento Popular de Libertação de Angola. Relations improved dramatically in the 2000s.

## Economic relations

* Trade volume between the two countries was US$163 million in 2015.
* There are daily direct flights from Istanbul to Kinshasa since 2014.

## Educational relations

* Turkish Maarif Foundation runs schools in DR Congo.

# Arthog

Arthog (Welsh pronunciation) is a village, post town and community in the Meirionnydd area in Gwynedd, north Wales including the villages of Fairbourne and Friog. It is located on the A493, approximately 8 miles (13 km) west of Dolgellau, and had a population of 1,010 in 2001, increasing slightly to 1,031 at the 2011 census.

## Etymology

The village was named after the Welsh ruler Arthog ap Ceredig

## History

In 1894, Solomon Andrews, a Cardiff entrepreneur, bought land overlooking the Mawddach estuary. On the site he completed Mawddach Crescent in 1902. The row of terraced properties was the start of a purpose-built holiday resort he intended for the area. However the planned development went no further because the surrounding land proved unsuitable for urban planning. During the Second World War, the Royal Marines commandeered Mawddach Crescent. It became known as Iceland Camp. The marines also built huts on nearby Fegla Fawr; the foundation bases can still be seen between the trees above the estuary.
It is well known for its outdoor activity centres and the nearby Llynnau Cregennen. The Arthog Outdoor Education Centre is owned by Telford and Wrekin Council and is primarily used in term-time by schools from the Shropshire and Telford & Wrekin Local Education Authorities.

## Population

According to the 2011 census, 28.3% of the community's residents were able to speak Welsh. Consequently, Arthog had the lowest percentage of Welsh speakers of any community in Gwynedd. 70.6% of the community's residents were born outside Wales.

## Transport

The village was served by Arthog railway station (on the Barmouth - Ruabon line) until the complete closure of the line in 1964. The line is now a footpath known as the Mawddach Trail (Welsh: Llwybr Mawddach), and is popular with both walkers and cyclists. Morfa Mawddach railway station is on the western outskirts of the village. The station is situated on the Cambrian Line with direct trains northbound to Pwllheli via Barmouth and Porthmadog and southbound to Birmingham International via Machynlleth and Shrewsbury.

Yudonosan is the final destination in the Shugendo pilgrimage between all the mountains and is also associated with meeting potential spouses. The mountain itself, Mount Yudono, is highly regarded as a training ground for ascetic discipline, and many yamabushi and ascetics believe that their pilgrimage is not complete until they reach the summit of Mount Yudono. The mountain is known for its goshintai, a sacred object believed to be connected to a god., and they use an Iwakura rock as a shintai. The shrine on Mount Yudono is regarded as holy ground and is kept secret, with photography and video recordings being strictly prohibited even today. It is impossible to enter the shrine in winter due to heavy snow.
