Our @TreorchyComp pupils were pleased to welcome Colonel James Phillips, the Veterans’ Commissioner for Wales to Valley Veterans. Col Phillips toured the facility and also made time to promote one of our new Corporals. @CadetsinSchools @CttWales @RFCAforWales @TreorchyHealth

Whoever said never work with children or animals has never visited us. Here's Frankie the Ferret enjoying a treat; Snowy enjoying a bath between torrential showers; and some wildlife at our Thursday Breakfast Club today. It was great to see a big crowd with new friends joining us

We’re delighted to have received £500 of funding for our Equi-Grow Project through
@Localgiving’s Magic Little Grants Fund which is supported by players of @PostcodeLottery.

Not what you'd call an average week by any means. Started with a Gun Salute in Cardiff for HM The Queen's birthday; amazing work continued on site thanks to our amazing volunteers, funders and supporters; Paul then met the King and Queen in Brecon on Thursday
