🪑 Every bench has a story… this one is Gary’s. 💙
A place to sit, reflect, and talk.

Big thanks to Gary’s family for allowing us to honour his life with this special bench at The Powerstation, Cwmbran.

👥 happens every Wednesday, 1–3pm.
No judgment. No pressure. Just real conversations — when you’re ready.

Speak, listen, or simply sit with us. You’re always welcome.
