UPCOMING EVENTS
COMMEMORATIVE BENCHES
Regular visitors to our event will recall we ran a number of fund raising initiatives to raise funds to purchase a bench to go in the town's Memorial Garden to mark the 100th anniversary of the end of World War 1. We are pleased to say that with all the fund raising and the support of Tesco's Bags of Help scheme we were able not to only buy the bench but also a second one to mark the 75th anniversary of the end of World War 2.
The benches now take pride of place in the Memorial Garden, Howell Drive Welshpool.
