The Prince and Princess of Wales are set to visit Pontyclun as part of their project to provide mental health support in south Wales. The royal couple are aiming to create therapy allotments and gardens, which will form the second in a series of 'community impact' pilots from The Royal Foundation.
It comes after it was announced this week that the royals are set to visit Wales on Tuesday ahead of St David's Day. They will visit Aberavon Leisure & Fitness Centre to hear how sport and exercise can support mental health and wellbeing, before travelling to the base of the Wales Air Ambulance charity in Llanelli to meet emergency workers, volunteers and supporters.

It has also been confirmed that the couple will be visiting a new garden that is being developed at Brynawel Rehabilitation Centre, near Pontyclun. The site will include a collection of allotments where individuals can have their own space to learn and grow their own produce.
