Council relaunches annual festive food bank appeal

Council leader Jamie Pritchard said: “I would like to thank everyone who has supported our recent Christmas appeals. The generosity shown has been truly heart-warming and has made a real difference to individuals and families across the borough over the festive period.

“At a time when many people are facing financial pressures, this collective effort shows the strength of our community and the compassion that exists throughout Caerphilly.”
