New Hedges Village Hall has received a boost thanks to a newly-launched initiative by a Tenby attraction.

The hall committee has received the first donation from The Fry Foundation - St. Catherine’s Island Project, a resource put in place with the aim of supporting local community-based projects and smaller charities that lack their own resources to tap into more widely available funding.

It is intended to make donations on a regular basis as opportunity permits to causes, community projects and charities that have a direct local or regional connection.

The donation in favour of New Hedges Village Hall will provide a modest contribution towards creating a public play area within the heart of the New Hedges village.
