Community websites

Workshops in the community

After a successful three years, our Community Grid for Learning project has regrettably come to an end. Therefore we can no longer run the free website workshops for community groups. However, Torfaen County Borough Council has kindly agreed to take over the hosting of the websites at no cost to the community groups. May be take this opportunity to thank TCBC for their assistance in this matter and also to thank all the groups for all the work they have put in. May we also thank the European Social Fund and Big Lottery Fund for the funding that has made this project happen.

All is not lost however. If you are a community group and you would like to create a website then below are a list of possibilities.
