Bowled over! Church strikes £50k windfall
The only church in Britain to run a bowling
alley has been granted £50,000 to continue
its social enterprise.
Revenue from the 12-lane alley in a former
cheese creamery on the edge of Carmarthen,
in
south Wales, has been
funding
social
projects run by Towy Community Church
since 2013. But coronavirus restrictions have
curtailed
its operations. Camarthenshire
Council stepped in with a grant to ensure
that
its
foodbank, community
shop and
furniture store kept running.
