Earlier this year we moved away from the free reservations we had been offering in favour of upfront fees. This was for a trial period, and it is working.
Upfront payments mean:
Sustainable events for our future, more spaces for those who want to attend and is fairer for everyone
ALT Image shows families participating in art activities surrounded by signs, notice boards and captions stating that we no longer offer free reservations and what it means for beneficiaries and Taff Rocks.

Did you know, as well as the project in this video, without the BCT Wales, Invest Local and the IL Ynysowen steering group, Taff Rocks, and the work we do for and with our community might not exist as you see it today. This is something we are eternally grateful for.
🫥In places where public services have pulled back, community centres aren’t a luxury - they’re a lifeline.
The people of Hubberston & Hakin managed to save theirs, knowing that once it was gone, nothing would fill the gap it left behind - it's the same story all over Wales.
