£105k lottery grants boost for Pembrokeshire community groups

THREE organisations in Pembrokeshire are to be awarded over £105,000 by the National Lottery Community Fund, it has been announced. Most of the money, £94,888 is going to Solva Care.
Solva Care will bring together a strategic partnership of third and public sector organisations to support the community groups that have developed in response to Covid-19, across Pembrokeshire. The project will support new and existing groups to become sustainable post Covid-19. £94,888 over 12 months will fund staff, training and travel, activities, and evaluation.
Mothers Affection Matters CIC will get £7,950 and will use the grant to start a café-style gathering in Haverfordwest and Cardiff. This will help, the organisation said, to improve the well-being of women who have been negatively impacted by lock-down. £7,950 will fund counselling, staff, and administration.
Milford Haven Unit 564 of the Sea Cadet Corps will get a cheque for £2,500, which will ensure that their building, which is used by the local community, can safely reopen post lock-down. £2,500 will fund cleaning equipment and utility costs.
