The rotary club was active over the Christmas period, raising money to help local charities and food banks.
The club said: “President David Curtis and members of the Rotary Club of Pontllanfraith would like to thank all members of the local community in the old Islwyn areas for their support with the Christmas Sleigh as it toured around the local villages in the first two weeks of December.
“This generous support has enabled the club to help local charities and food banks. Thank you all again.”
