Residents at Llys Cadfan residential Home in Tywyn Gwynedd received a boost yesterday, Monday 27th February, after a local Police and Community Support Officer (PCSO) secured funding to assist pay for the running of a mini bus so they can enjoy days out this spring and summer. PCSO Meirion Jones of the North Wales Police Safer Neighbourhood Team at Tywyn successfully applied to the Police and Community Trust (PACT) and was awarded £200 to help towards running costs of a mini bus.
News of the award was presented to residents and staff yesterday when PCSO Jones and colleague PCSO Kath Lake-Bullen delivered crime prevention and internet safety advice to residents and their families.
PCSO Jones said “We enjoy a very good relationship with the local community and often patrol Llys Cadfan and other homes to provide a visible reassurance to the residents and staff. It’s important those most vulnerable, and their families are not forgotten. Excursions are an excellent way of adding to their quality of life as well as enhancing their physical and mental wellbeing, thereby reducing their isolation and potential vulnerability.
