Charity Name: Llanrumney Hall Community Trust
Charity Number: 1165169
Brief description of what our charity does:
Llanrumney is based in the East of Cardiff and is listed as one of the highest areas of deprivation in Wales. We were established in 2016 and made a commitment to provide a life changing community hub of excellence through the regeneration of Llanrumney Hall - whose history dates back to 1452.
Since our doors official opened in the Summer of 2019, we have transformed Llanrumney Hall and continue to make it beneficial for the immediate and surrounding communities and to develop interest and support from across Wales and beyond because of its notable historical importance.
In the last few years, we have regenerated the landscape and provisions of Llanrumney Hall and are now home to a daycare creche, a music recording studio, a pottery facility, a gardening polytunnel, a community café, a community food facility, a health and wellbeing roundhouse and 11 tenants operating small local businesses from our main building.
We have ran initiatives which have enabled us to support those fleeing Ukraine, distribute free sanitary items to local girls and women, giveaway free prom dresses and baby clothes to those who may not be able to afford them, offer free educational courses to help people develop their CV’s for employability purposes, host fully funded afternoon tea sessions for new mothers and the elderly community to help bring people together when coming out of lockdown and so much more. We pride ourselves on offering a variety of services and resources which aim to support all ages and demographics of our community.
Our mission is to help Llanrumney help itself out of poverty.
How often does our board meet?
We meet in Cardiff, Wales 5 times per year. Limited additional meetings may be required from time to time.
