Brecongate Projects Community Fund February Award
Due to the overwhelming number of applications for our community fund, we have decided to allocate the fund for the month of February to two different clubs/organizations. Allowing for a broader impact in the community. Let's look at the first organization, Risca RFC Under 15’s.
Let's delve into the significance of allocating funds to Risca RFC Under 15's and how the financial contribution for the purchase of an essential playing kit for the next two seasons will positively impact the youth rugby team.
Supporting youth sports, like the Risca RFC Under 15's, holds immense value for the community. Engaging in team sports not only promotes physical fitness but also instills discipline, teamwork, and a sense of camaraderie among young individuals. By choosing to allocate funds to provide an essential playing kit, the community fund is directly contributing to the overall development and well-being of the Under 15's players.
The decision to fund the essential playing kit for the next two seasons is strategic and forward-thinking. Having a dedicated kit ensures that the team is not only properly outfitted but also fosters a sense of unity and identity among the players. Wearing a club kit contributes to a professional and cohesive team image, promoting a sense of pride and belonging among the youth athletes.
Securing the playing kit for two seasons demonstrates a commitment to the continuity and stability of the Risca RFC Under 15's team. It relieves the financial burden on the team and its members, allowing them to focus on their passion for rugby without worrying about the costs associated with acquiring new kits each season.
The community fund's support for the Risca RFC Under 15's also extends to the broader community, as local sports teams often serve as rallying points for families and friends. The visibility of the team in their well-equipped kit can inspire other young individuals to participate in sports and foster a sense of community pride.
In summary, allocating funds to Risca RFC Under 15's for the purchase of an essential playing kit for the next two seasons is an investment in the physical, social, and emotional development of the youth in the community. It not only provides practical support for the team but also contributes to the overall vibrancy and inclusivity of community sports, creating a positive impact that extends beyond the rugby field.
Good luck with the coming season and beyond.

Our community fund allocation will make a positive impact by supporting organizations that cater to diverse needs. Let's delve into the significance of allocating funds to Diversity Dragons in Merthyr and how the financial contribution for audio/lighting equipment for their sensory sessions will benefit children with additional learning needs.
Diversity Dragons in Merthyr plays a crucial role in creating an inclusive and supportive environment for children with additional learning needs. The decision to allocate funds for audio/lighting equipment demonstrates a thoughtful understanding of the specific requirements of these children during sensory sessions. Sensory sessions are instrumental in providing a safe and stimulating space for children with diverse needs to explore and engage with their surroundings.
The purchase of audio/lighting equipment is strategic, as it enhances the quality and effectiveness of the sensory sessions. These sessions often rely on sensory stimulation to create a multisensory experience, which can be particularly beneficial for children with additional learning needs.

By investing in audio/lighting equipment, the community fund is not only contributing to the immediate needs of Diversity Dragons but also enabling the organization to expand its reach and impact. The enhanced sensory sessions can potentially attract more participants, providing a valuable resource for families with children who have additional learning needs in Merthyr.
