Time to Heal
After years travelling the world with the army, from Norway to Bosnia, ex-Royal Engineer Richard Perrett knew that when he left the army, he wanted a peaceful life. A move to Pembrokeshire meant he was able to swap fixing tanks for the quiet world of watchmaking. As one of only a handful of watchmakers in the UK, Richard uses watchmaking not only as a way to repair watches, but also for repairing himself. Now with a successful business, he hopes to pass on these skills to his daughter and grandchildren.

With their strong aesthetic, passion for music, and commitment to helping others, they created a home studio in the annexe at the bottom of their garden to develop local musicians. In this documentary, we follow the Foxy Roxies as they plan a large scale live music event, and we meet some of the local musicians who are making their mark in the Welsh music scene.
