Hello and welcome to our new quarterly newsletter! There’s always something happening at the Community Impact Initiative, so we’ve created this newsletter to keep you all up to date.
In the past few months alone, we’ve welcomed the Minister for Education, completed a National Lottery funded project in Swansea, and have begun work on a Pen y Cymoedd funded project in Clyne.
Minister for Education Visit
| We were delighted to be joined by the Minister for Education and Welsh Language Jeremy Miles MS/AS this month, who visited our community regeneration project in Clyne. The minister spent time talking to our participants about how the project was supporting them to improve their mental health and tackle social isolation, all whilst learning new skills. |
