One suspects that this is code for "cuts".
There will be meetings all over Powys shortly run by the County Council and the Teaching Health Board, and the nearest one to Hay will be in Brecon on 8th October at Elim Church. There will be workshops from 10am - 1pm and 2pm - 5pm, which need to be booked in advance, at consultation@powys.gov.uk or by ringing Melanie Hardwick on 01597 826160. Then from 6pm - 8pm there will be a drop in session.
Powys County Council has to find £70 million in savings by 2020, so they want to discuss new ways of delivering services - which presumably means getting residents to provide the services for themselves as "volunteers", or passing services over to local councils who can't manage to provide them either (like the toilets, which are still under threat).
The Health Board has been experimenting with Leg Clubs and Virtual Wards, apparently.
