Save the Pop Factory
Pontypridd & Rhondda Roundtable is proud to announce a donation of £500 to the Save the Pop Factory campaign, helping to support efforts to preserve one of Porth’s most iconic landmarks and protect its future for generations to come.
The former Pop Factory has long been an important part of the town’s heritage, holding a special place in the memories of local people and serving as a symbol of RCTs rich industrial and cultural history. The campaign aims to secure the building’s future and ensure it continues to benefit the local community.
The £500 donation forms part of the Roundtable’s ongoing commitment to reinvesting funds raised through its events and charitable activities back into local causes that make a meaningful difference across Pontypridd and the Rhondda.
Sam Fathers, Area Chairman for South Wales (Area 4) and member of Pontypridd & Rhondda Roundtable, said:
“Roundtable exists to support our local communities, and the Save the Pop Factory campaign is exactly the kind of initiative we’re proud to stand behind. The Pop Factory is an important part of the Rhondda valleys identity, and we hope our donation helps the campaign continue its fantastic work in protecting this much-loved building.”
A representative from the Save the Pop Factory campaign welcomed the donation, thanking Pontypridd & Rhondda Roundtable for its support and commitment to preserving an important piece of local heritage.
Pontypridd & Rhondda Roundtable raises thousands of pounds each year through community events, including its popular charity fireworks display, with every pound raised helping to support local charities, community groups, and worthwhile causes across the area.
The organisation encourages local residents and businesses to support the Save the Pop Factory campaign and other community initiatives that help protect the history and future of Pontypridd.
