Spring Clean 2023
A huge thank you to all our Spring Clean volunteers who have helped keep Torfaen Tidy this week.
Despite some rain, the turnout has been great all week and volunteers at the Boating Lake, Ponthir and Pontypool have collected bags and bags of litter, road signs, traffic cones, white plastic goods and a metal can!
Gwanwyn Glân 2023
Diolch yn fawr iawn i'n holl wirfoddolwyr Spring Clean sydd wedi helpu i gadw Torfaen yn Daclus yr wythnos hon.
Er gwaethaf peth glaw, mae'r nifer a bleidleisiodd wedi bod yn wych trwy'r wythnos ac mae gwirfoddolwyr yn y Llyn Cychod, Ponthir a Phont-y-pŵl wedi casglu bagiau a bagiau o sbwriel, arwyddion ffyrdd, cytiau traffig, nwyddau plastig gwyn a gall metel!
