The original idea for Y Bont – in its format as a child and family centre in Bridgend – came from a group of like-minded parents of children with additional needs who were keen to establish somewhere that their children could go to learn and play given that no provision of its kind existed in the local community or beyond. In 1993 they started a four year long fundraising campaign raising in excess of �300,000 which was used to build the centre now known as Y Bont in the grounds of Heronsbridge School on Ewenny Road. Unlike all other schools in Bridgend, Y Bont is not funded by the Local Authority, it is a charity and as such operates 51 weeks of the year (closing only over the week of Christmas). This makes Y Bont as accessible to families of disabled children when they need us most.
