Every Friday at the Swansea.com. What an amazing organisation. A huge well done and thank you for all that you do š
As a footnote South Wales Police held their passing out parade at the stadium yesterday for new recruits. Quite a spectacle. Good luck to one and all on your new career path.

Sorry but I'm ignorant about this, what do they do?
Was set up around 6 years ago when a young lad Jac Lewis from Ammanford took his own life. The Jac Lewis Foundation was set up to help prevent others falling to the same fete. It is a safe place for men or women to attend when not in a good place or it could be social isolation or similar. Where appropriate they will signpost you to appropriate support. Samaritans also attend. It is a "walk in" place open every Friday 11am to 3pm at the Swansea.com stadium. Tea and biscuits supplied. Groups of mainly men often sit around the table chatting. A number of volunteers help out. They do a remarkable job. I can't praise them enough. Swansea City should be applauded for supporting this amazing initiative.

I count myself very lucky to currently not need this but yes, well done to the Swans for their support.

Well done excellent initiative š
On a side note my mates boy was in the police passing out at the stadium last week.
Not sure Iād of thought his boy would join the force whilst I was travelling up & down the country following the swans with him in the 80s & 90s.
