Local Assembly Member Paul Davies has presented a cheque for almost £5,000 to Wolfscastle over 60s on behalf of the Awards for All Scheme, under the Big Lottery Fund. The scheme aims to support community activity by extending access and participation, increasing skills and creativity and generally improving the quality of life of people in their local communities.

Mr Davies said: “I was delighted to present the Wolfscastle over 60s club with a cheque for almost £5,000, which I understand, will be used to organise a series of educational visits to local and national places of interest during the coming year. The Wolfscastle over 60s club now has more than 30 members and with this funding, it can continue to go from strength to strength. I’ve been fortunate to have visited the club on numerous occasions and I’d therefore urge any older people living in Wolfscastle to join the group as it’s a fantastic way to socialise and meet new people.”
