Council grants are given to groups and organisations which are spread across Pontypool and to numerous local and national charitable organisations

The organisations use these much-needed grants to support healthy living and to ensure a more equal Wales that brings together communities. In turn, this leads to a more prosperous Wales, enabling everyone in the community to reap the benefits. Each Councillor has a Local Voluntary Funding Pot of £2500 that they can award to local groups and organisations in their ward.
