isolation or exclusion. The drop in facilities is open to all and
offers a place to relax and have a chance to take part in a wide range

signpost people to other organisations and specialist support services
if necessary.

Community Garden
A joint venture between Ponthafren Welspool Outreach, North Montgomeryshire Volunteer Bureau, Phoenix House, Gwalia Housing and A4E is a community garden project. Thanks to the owners of Glansevern Hall who have given the group the use of a garden plot. It is a wonderful opportunity for members to get our and enjoy some fresh air in beautiful surroundings.
