Meet Hywel


Meet Hywel

Meet Hywel, whose life took a new direction when he joined a local walking group, funded by Make Some Noise.

After unexpectedly losing his wife, Jen, Hywel was devastated. The prospect of retirement and living alone, with no social connections, felt overwhelming. But through the People & Work group, he found new confidence and a sense of belonging. The group helped him rebuild his life, offering vital support and friendship during a difficult time.

“I can’t even begin to think what life would be like if this group didn’t exist”

Thanks to projects like this, people like Hywel can find comfort and community when they need it most.
