At this time of year, teams from across Trivallis are normally out and about in our communities hosting lots of fun family events. We had such fun at last year’s Penrhys Disco and Fan Heulog Great Estate Day.
COVID-19 safety measures mean we can’t all come together this year, but that won’t stop us bringing you a week of online activities to keep you and the little ones entertained across half-term.
Follow @wearetrivallis on Facebook and Twitter now, and from 23rd – 31st October you’ll see us posting lots of Halloween themed crafts, recipes and competitions for you to get involved in. You could even be in with the chance of winning one of three £30 Love to Shop vouchers. Read more to find out what we have in store…
