Metro Rod Newport, Hereford, and Gloucester have a close relationship with Blaenau-Gwent-based palliative care specialists Hospice of the Valleys.
That's why, whenever we can, we do our best to work with Hospice of the Valleys and sponsor their charity events.
The KAPOW superhero challenge was at Parc Bryn Bach, in Tredegar, on Saturday 8th September, giving people the chance to don their capes and masks by taking on a 5K inflatable obstacle course.

- Thor
- Robin
- The Hulk
