Our thanks to all the residents who took part in our minging to blinging sessions in July. We ran a series of workshops in July to raise awareness of recycling and show that old clothes can be revamped and reused rather than being thrown out.
The youth club used paints, glitters and pens to turn their old t shirts into something, whilst members of the Wednesday group used beads etc to breathe new life into their clothes and accessories.
We would like to thank Glamorgan Gates for kindly agreeing to run these workshops for us and for the recycling team from Merthyr Tydfil County Borough Council for telling local residents about their recycling service.
We will be running additional workshops in the future for local resident to show residents how to recycle household items into accessories. If you would like to come along, please contact Sally at the Communities First Office on 01685 383758.
