The launch of Cowbridge Pride last weekend proved to a hugely inspiring and uplifting occasion.

At a completely full Town Hall, the capacity audience was treated to a performance by Vale Academy of Performing Arts, before CMVC took to the stage for a selection of 'afterglow' songs.

A spokesperson for the choir said: "This was a magnificent community event and the choir was thrilled and privileged to play its part.

" Congratulations to Ian 'H' Watkins of 'Steps' fame, the Town Council, Connie Orff and all others who contributed."
