A huge thankyou to Fare Share Cymru, Fare Share Go and Neighbourly for helping us to source food for our care bags. We have had support from Tesco, Morrisons, Waitrose, Asda, Lidl, Co-op and Marks and Spencer – thank you !

We’ve received a number of lovely thank you cards and notes from residents. So glad that everyone is enjoying the meals and the care bags and that we can be of help at this time

A massive 500 meals gone out this week to households who are isolating and without support. Well done to everyone. We’ve had some lovely thank you notes and donations, they are much appreciated and we continue to support over 200 local households with care bags.

A BIG thank you to all our volunteers for the commitment and dedication you have all shown during this difficult time. Without you all we would not be able to support the communities of Cyfarthfa ward and Plymouth ward like we are.
