Thank you Lorraine and Rosemary for your replies. Lorraine, I looked up the website a few times and never found the info about the Distress Fund. Would I be doing something wrong? Sue |

I have a postcard with people on it. They are to do with the 'Pontypridd Distress Fund, Trallwyn Ward, St. Matthews Church. Does anybody have any info about this. Was it set up because of a strike? Thank you, Sue |
