Ria Gibbs, involvement officer with Bron Afon, said: “We have a community action plan for Blaenavon that highlights issues from local residents.

“One issue was around the perception of young people so we decided to get everyone together.

“It was a fun event with a lot of laughter. One person told me, ‘I’ve had such as wonderful time with the kids. Coffee mornings will never be the same’.“
