Word From The Third

Learning about what Deal Me Out CIC do across Wales.

Deal Me Out is proud to deliver the national education and gambling harms awareness programme for
Wales. We aim to reduce the adverse impact of gambling on the health and wellbeing of individuals,
families, communities, and society through education, prevention, and support. We do this by bringing
education and training to the population about gambling and gaming-related harms and giving people the tools to help themselves and others.

Hearing from Matthew about the library service in Torfaen and what kind of services they offer.

Learning about the work that Tenovus Cancer Care does.

In 1943 Tenovus Cancer Care was founded by 10 local businessmen supporting a friend in need. Over the years, Tenovus Cancer Care has grown and changed, but some things have remained constant. They continue to care about their community and being there for cancer patients when and where they need them most. They care about finding a cure by funding vital research, and about preventing cancer in the first place. They care about doing this where it matters most; in the heart of the community. This is what is at the heart of Tenovus Cancer Care today.

Hearing about the work of Blaen Bran Community Woodland and the work they do.

Blaen Bran is both a company limited by guarantee and a charity. The charity and volunteers work to maintain, protect and preserve the woodland. The committee and volunteers are all unpaid.

They hope that all the community will be able to enjoy the woodland (and the people you meet) so much that you will want to help care for the woodland. Please help to spread the word if you like it!

On this special festive edition of the Word From The Third podcast, you'll be hearing from some of the organisations and individuals from across Torfaen with some very special seasonal greetings.

Series 2 of the Word From The Third Podcast is coming soon.
