Each event will run from 10am to 2pm and is designed to be informative and accessible, helping people discover what support is available in their local area.

Lucy Bates, Hafren Dyfrdwy Community Connector, said: “We’re so pleased to bring back our Support in the Community events for the new year. These sessions have proven to be a fantastic way for people to connect with local organisations and find the help they need in a friendly, welcoming environment.

“We know that January can be a challenging time for many, whether it’s managing household bills, looking for wellbeing support, or simply finding out what services are available locally.

“By bringing together a wide range of partners under one roof, we aim to make it easier for people to access advice and guidance without having to visit multiple places.

“Our goal is to create a space where everyone feels comfortable to ask questions, share concerns, and leave feeling more informed and supported. Whether you’re facing challenges or just want to learn more about what’s available in your area, we’d love to see you there.”
