Most Covid restrictions have now ended, but heartbreakingly, many older people have lost their confidence in going out and are still stuck inside. We urgently need volunteers, in all areas of Powys, to support lonely and isolated older people to enjoy getting outside again after Covid-19. Thank you so much for your support.

Please see attached and below campaign from Gail Hamer, Chief Officer at Age Cymru Powys.

The GACF was set up in November 2003 in order to administer the money still left in the Millennium Fund. A constitution was agreed, and the following objectives defined: - To stimulate and support activities, events and projects within the Gladestry Community Council area. - To aim to use the fund as a sort of seed capital for projects, whereby if a profit is made, some reimbursement is requested, but is not a requirement.
