Charity begins at home for Stagecoach


The popular Stagecoach Theatre Arts group in Carmarthen is branching out to help charitable causes in and around the town.
“We’ve always been more than just a stage and theatre arts school,” Stagecoach principal Liane Davies said.
“Getting involved in the local community is also very important to us.
“The old saying is that charity begins at home and we want local charitable groups to be aware that we are there to help them for some of their fund-raising efforts.
“The children at Stagecoach love performing and they love an audience, so it would be great if we could help some local charities in their hard work.”
Pupils from Stagecoach Theatre Arts Carmarthen have already been asked to sing at the Radio Carmarthenshire ‘Local Hero’ awards ceremony in October.
They have also been asked to perform during the Christmas activities being organised by Carmarthen Town Council to drum-up all-important festive trade for the town.
Liane added: “We consider ourselves very much a part of the community in Carmarthen and the surrounding area, so we want to do all we can to build on that community spirit and – where and when we can – help people.”
Stagecoach Theatre Arts Carmarthen has its base at the Model Church in Wales School.
