Community Celebration Evening
On Thursday 3rd October Pontypool Community Council welcomed local sports clubs and community organisations to join them at Pontypool Golf Club to hear about each other’s successes and to be officially awarded their Grants for this financial year.
This year’s grant recipients included 18 sports venues and 11 junior sport teams from the disciplines of Rugby, Football, Cricket and Bowls.
There were also brief speeches from a number of recipients of larger Core Funding grants, including St David’s Hospice and Age Connects Torfaen. Many had also brought literature and display boards about their work.
The evening celebrates a total of £47,000 given to support these worthwhile community groups working within Pontypool and District.
We will be celebrating more of our grant recipients, including our School Environmental Awards and Grant Aid recipients, later in the year.
