Sunday 18th December saw much 'Ho-ho-hoing!'
throughout the communities of the Upper Swansea Valley as
Santa took his sleigh for the annual Santa's Parade, organised
by The Sleeping Giant Foundation. Accompanied by the Abercrave
Fire Brigade and his helpers, Santa had a warm welcome in
all the communities he visited.
Santa journeyed from Caerbont to the Abercrave
Miners' Welfare Hall, The Copper Beech and The Abercrave Inn,
Coelbren Miners' Welfare Hall, Ynyswen Community Hall, Caehopkin
and finishing at Pen y Cae and The Ancient Briton where there
was cawl, cheese and bread for all.
Children were treated to meeting Santa and
being given small gifts and everyone had a truly magical afternoon.
A big thanks goes to John Steadman (there
couldn't have been anyone more perfect!), Abercrave Fire Brigade,
Gerald James (Ancient Briton), Tom Addey (Communities First)
and all the community halls in the Upper Swansea valley for
their warm hospitality.
