Story
this 92 year old woman from the Ely area of Cardiff was a well known person who worked in a local shop on the grand avenue , she was callously robbed of her life savings by burglars who broke in while she slept. Ely is a fantastic community , lets show how much we care about it by atleast trying to compensate her for all she gave to the community over the years
