Light has been shed on security issues for older residents in the Torfaen area thanks to Western Power Distribution.
The company has donated £2,000 to Care and Repair Torfaen to provide 25 security lights for older and vulnerable residents of the borough.
Care and Repair Torfaen spokeswoman Nicola Maule said: “The lighting has been placed outside our client’s homes to provide extra security and peace of mind, and to deter intruders and vandals.”
Brian McDowell (pictured) said: “We are very pleased with the support we have received. We were concerned about our safety and this has made things so much easier.
“The security light has been very helpful and given us more confidence during the dark winter nights.”
