Our Charity Partner 

Y BONT SPECIALIST CHILD & FAMILY CENTRE


At Jon Purnell Wealth Management, we're deeply committed to giving back to our community, and charity is at the core of our values.


Y Bont, situated within the grounds of Heronsbridge School in Bridgend, is a unique child and family centre established in 1997. As an independent charity, Y Bont provides essential services that support disabled children and their families from as young as six weeks old. Catering to a wide range of needs, from complex conditions to emerging autism and challenging behaviours, Y Bont is dedicated to nurturing every child's potential.


The Y Bont School holds a special significance for Jon, as his nephew Samuel, who has autism, has benefited from its services.


Recently, in partnership with the St. James's Place Foundation, we raised £2500 in emergency grant funding for the Bridgend & District Resource for Children, aiding in essential adjustments during the challenging times of the coronavirus outbreak.


Our commitment to Y Bont is resolute. Through the SJP Foundation, we've recently donated a further £10,000 to support their invaluable work. As an organisation reliant on donations and grants, we recognise the significance of community support in enabling us to continue our mission of enriching lives.


Every child at Y Bont embarks on a unique journey, and we are privileged to be a part of their story, offering unwavering guidance and support every step of the way.


At Jon Purnell Wealth Management, we're dedicated to making a positive impact, not just in our community, but in the lives of those who need it most.
