As part of our Leaving a Legacy Programme to support local community groups, on our Cyncoed Campus Car Park project at Cardiff Metropolitan University, we have made 3 donations to Cardiff Community Groups and Sports Clubs – Apollos ABC, WISP Judo Wales and 1st Rhiwbina Scout Group. It has been great to meet with them all and find out more about the amazing work they have been doing within the local community of Cardiff.
About the Community Groups and Sports Clubs:
Apollos ABC is a boxing club based in Llanedeyrn & Pentwyn which brings adults and children from 9 years old into the world of amateur boxing. It is an all-inclusive community boxing club, a space for fighters, in the ring and in life which focuses on discipline, dedication and determination.
