A generous gesture by a Swansea-based company will benefit children, young people and their families attending Monmouthshire County Council’s social services contact centre in Abergavenny.

Facility Services Group Limited (FSG) has donated a flat screen television, a Playstation 4 and a number of games to allow parents and children to interact and spend precious time together at the premises.

As well as providing the equipment, FSG staff installed it, ensuring it ran smoothly.

Handing over the equipment on behalf of FSG at the contact centre were Luke Davies, Head of FM Services and Fabric Engineer Peter Gowing. Asked about this generous contribution, Mr Geraint Davies, Managing Director for FSG said: “As a business, we have always been committed to giving back to the community and supporting local charities. The work the centre does with children and young adults is truly incredible and I am proud to be able to contribute to such a fantastic cause.”

Receiving the equipment from Luke and Peter was Monmouthshire’s cabinet member for social care, safeguarding and health, Councillor Penny Jones.

Councillor Jones said: “We’re very grateful for the kind donation from FSG which will be much appreciated by local children and their families. These items will boost the service offered by the contact centre and help to create a welcoming environment.”

Staff at the contact centre and members of the council’s Children’s Services team who co-ordinated the donation were also overjoyed by the gifts.
