Care & Repair Western Bay, who deliver practical support to older people in the Swansea and Neath Port Talbot area, have moved from Enterprise Park on Valley Way to a new location in Clydach.

Emma Tweed, Chief Officer of Care & Repair Western Bay, said: “I am excited to announce that Care & Repair Western Bay have moved to a new home. Following a long search for a space that could meet both our current and future needs, we have found a new home in Clydach, Swansea.

“This will mark a fresh start for the organisation following some years of significant change and will be a new home to both our charity and social enterprise.

“With new ways of hybrid working and our front-line staff now working remotely in the communities in which they live, we have been able to downsize our office space significantly. This will enable us to save costs on overheads which will be reinvested in front-line casework, technical and handyperson services, offering greater value for money for funders and improved services for our clients across Neath Port Talbot and Swansea.

“Our clients are welcome to visit us at our new offices in Clydach, and we can be contacted on 01792 798599.”
