Description
Photograph of kitchen staff for the Christmas Day dinner organised by Grangetown Community Concern. This is catalogued by Glamorgan Archives as 1993, and two other photographs in file have 'Xmas 1993' written on the back in pencil. The date of the dinner was moved to Boxing Day in 1994, to give volunteers a chance to have Christmas with their families. Other photographs in the collection show other diners and kitchen staff.
Grangetown Community Concern is a voluntary group, partly funded by Cardiff Council but almost entirely run by volunteers. It was established in 1977 and is a registered charity. The group was set up as an umbrella group for other voluntary organisations with its aims and objectives to provide and encourage services for all age groups, with a particular focus on older people.
The group organises the week-long Grangetown Festival in June. It also organised lunches and trips for older people, and produced a quarterly local newspaper. The organisation has awarded community cups to children from local primary schools who have shown community spirit and has also been responsible for arranging an annual carol service.
The group was renamed Grangetown Community Action in 2014.
