Charitable trust grants help local churches

Improvement projects planned at two Vale of Glamorgan churches have been boosted by charitable trust grants.

 

Grants of £3,000 and £2,500 respectively have been awarded to St Mary's (Bonvilston) and Bethel Evangelical (Rhoose) by the Welsh Church Acts Trust Committee through the Vale Council.

 

St Mary's will use their grant to repair the church boundary wall, while the Rhoose chapel at Castle Road plan to buy new furniture and improve car parking.

 

Welsh Church Acts Trust chairman Cllr Fred Johnson said: "The committee is delighted to able to continue its support for projects planned by church and other good causes in the Vale and Cardiff areas."
