THE Vale Parkinson’s Support Group held their monthly meeting on October 4, at the Murchfield Community Centre, Dinas Powys.

An interesting presentation on the history of Barry Docks was given by Philip Walters who had spent much of his working life there. This was followed by a celebration of 41 years of very happy marriage of two members of the group. Helen and David Blesstly treated the group to Prosecco and wonderful homemade pavlovas.

Last month the group enjoyed tea and cakes at the Three Horseshoes, Dinas Powys, guests of the landlady, Denise. It was an event, enjoyed by all, which also raised much needed funds for Parkinson's Support.
