A CENTRE for children and young people with disabilities based in Wrexham has thanked a county councillor for arranging a 'Halloween Spooktacular' in their honour which raised £1,000.

Dynamic, based at Bradbury House on Salisbury Road, provide out of school activities for children and young people with disabilities.

The Halloween Spooktacular, arranged by Cllr Paul Pemberton, was held at the Hafod Club in Rhos and families were invited to wear their best spooky outfits and enjoy a night of live music, entertainment and fun.

Prizes were given to the best dressed and best carved pumpkins too.

Commenting on why he chose to support Dynamic, Cllr Pemberton said: "I feel the work they do is underestimated. Everyone I talk to tells me what a fantastic job they do. I have a nephew who attends their groups, and our family are so grateful. This is my way of saying thank you."

Marie Gibson, liaison officer at Dynamic said: "We can’t thank Paul enough for organising this event and raising such a fantastic amount.

"It’s been such a difficult time for so many local charities and gestures like this really do mean a lot to us.

"Whilst we do receive some funding to deliver services, we need to raise an additional 50 per cent to deliver all our services.

"This money will be put to good use and help us to carry on our vital work supporting local children and young people with disabilities."
