A local SVP group in Haverfordwest have responded to the cost of living crisis by opening their church hall every Thursday afternoon to provide a warm, welcoming space during the winter months. This is a collaborative project lead by the SVP.
As word spreads more and more people are attending and this week the conference welcomed 20 people, one of whom was Morris. Originally from Ireland. Morris has lived in Haverfordwest since the early 1980s. Living alone since his wife passed away with cancer 7 years ago, Morris said he was pleased the warm bank started up as it has given him a place to come and enjoy a warm meal and company. He added that there is always someone who will sit and chat with him.
