As many of you are aware, Storm Bert has caused significant damage and hardship in many areas of Blaenau Gwent, leaving residents in crisis. While the storm has brought devastation, the heartening response from the people of Blaenau Gwent has been nothing short of remarkable. Communities have come together, not only offering hands-on assistance but also providing generous financial support to help those most affected.
To ensure that all donated funds reach those who need them the most, the Gwent Association of Voluntary Organisations (GAVO) has kindly agreed to handle and process all donations. In partnership with other key local organisations, GAVO will distribute small "hardship payments" through an application process, which we hope to launch in the coming days.
Please note that GAVO is unable to accept cash donations. Therefore, all contributions must be made via bank transfer including the transfer of any GO-FUND ME contributions.
How to Donate:
If you are able and willing to support, please contact Laura O’Dowd for more information on how to make your donation.
