Community Projects

This project has created accessible community growing spaces on previously disused and badly overgrown land. The land is owned by Onllwyn Community Council and leased to DOVE Workshop. The project has built raised beds, constructed paths and erected large poly tunnels. There  are 23 families using the raised beds and one of the poly tunnels  to grow fresh produce, the other poly tunnel is used for horticulture and woodwork sessions with participants and volunteers.

If you are interested in finding out about any of the above projects, please do not hesitate to contact us.

Cwm-Ni Iach – Cwmunedau Iach – Healthy Company Healthy Communities is a project funded by Big Lottery’s People and Places grant.  The overarching aim of the project is to support adults and young people 16+ to improve their mental and physical health and well-being.

The need for the project came from discussion and consultation with community members, and is based on experiences of dealing with family members who have or are dealing with low to medium levels of stress, anxiety and depression.

We have a team of three workers, Lianne Byrne, project development worker, Kate Faulkner, advice and guidance worker and a part time administrator.  The team will work with groups and individuals to develop activities and work with specialist organisations to support individuals to improve their lives.
