Description

An article in Grange Community News explaining that the 15th Cardiff St Johns Scouts had received a grant of £3,800 under Cardiff County Council's Community Grants Programme, which has enabled them to install a new heating system and hot water supply to their scout hut in Sevenoaks Park. The article continues, "A wide range of community groups including scouts, guides, senior citizens, and dancing groups use the hall. With the new heating system it is hoped that use of the hall will be extended with the introduction of mother and toddler groups during the daytime." The article is accompanied by two photographs of the group with their cheque.

Grange Community News is a community newspaper produced by Grangetown Community Concern. Grangetown Community Concern is a voluntary group, partly funded by the 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 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 the local primary schools who have shown community spirit and has also arranged an annual carol service. The group was renamed Grangetown Community Action in 2014.
