They generally offered people a warm, safe place to visit without obligation to spend money while they are there. With her fellow volunteers at the Friends of Pontlliw Park she had spent the past few years planting and tidying a corner of the park. Last year they decided to develop a nearby building that was partly used as a football changing room.
Local residents walk down to get a cuppa, while a team of drivers collect older people who cannot usually get out of the house.Before the Friends of Pontlliw Park began work, the area was "in a bad way", Lyn said. Among the other local authorities, Flintshire said 47 warm hubs were still open to the community, Caerphilly was still offering 35 hubs, and there are 30 in Blaenau Gwent.
The church offers teas, coffees and cake to passers-by. It attracts parents who are dropping off children at the nearby school, as well as elderly residents.
