On a visit to the official opening of the Lifepoint Centre, Communities and Children’s Secretary, Carl Sargeant said:
“I’ve enjoyed meeting the staff and volunteers at the Lifepoint Centre and seeing the work that has been done with the grant from the Community Facilities Programme.
“The centre will now be well placed to provide access to vital services and to provide volunteering, education and training opportunities well into the future. The range of activities on offer will provide people of all ages with a chance to socialise and build new friendships.
“The Community Facilities Programme is not just about improving buildings. It’s also about empowering local people to get more involved with their community as a way of improving their daily lives.
“The programme has to date provided funding totalling over £16 million to 60 projects across Wales.”
