Coffee and Cake
Our residents from St Mary's Court in Newport hop on a bus every week to visit residents in Ty Cae Nant, Cwmbran for an afternoon of tea and cakes.

Local school Crownbridge attend the social gathering too setting up a café, selling homemade cakes. Pupils; Cameron Sulway, Marianna Tedesco and Daniel Lewis took orders and waited on residents raising over £50 for for Macmillan Cancer.

Claire Boshein, St Mary’s Court scheme manager said; “It’s great for residents from two schemes to come together and share their week. Everyone loves it.”

Marianna was pictured with residents Pat Walker and Mary Evans who became best friends the day they moved in, in 2015.

Pat said “I love living here, you’re never lonely. There is always something going on and I have made so many friends.”
