New Windows and a Greener View

Pembrokeshire veterans’ charity the VC Gallery has said “a big thank you” to the National Grid Community Grant Programme, whose “funding allowed us to install double glazing replacement windows in our main hall which significantly contribute to energy efficiency by improving insulation and reducing heat loss. This not only helps in creating a more comfortable and welcoming environment but also aligns with sustainable practices.

“We would also like to thank Dave at Halsteds of Pembroke, who supplied and fitted the windows.”

The charity added: “This will make a massive difference to us as the hall is an amazing resource for our veterans and local community. We have a shared lunch (every Tuesday, 12.30pm), seated exercise class (every Wednesday, 11am), bingo (every Friday, 1pm), as well as stand-alone events through the year.

“By investing in such green initiatives, our community is not only benefiting from improved facilities but also contributing to the larger goal of reducing energy consumption and minimising environmental impact.”
