Abergavenny toy share "so proud" of BBC award recognition

Toy Share Abergavenny, founded by Hannah Greys, is one of the 32 finalists in the BBC Cymru Wales Make a Difference Awards 2025. The awards celebrate individuals and groups who make a significant positive impact on their communities. Ms Greys' project is up for the Green Award.

It aims to encourage families to buy less and normalise second hand items, thus reducing the environmental impact of toys. In just over three years, more than 22,000 toys have been offered for free through the group. This not only helps families but also prevents these toys from ending up in landfill sites.

"It really does mean the world to see the impact of a simple idea – a free toy-sharing group – recognised for the difference it's making to both the environment and our local community." The initiative was born out of Ms Greys' personal experiences and observations. Before launching Toy Share, her own family faced unexpected financial hardship, during which she met many other parents struggling in silence. This inspired her to create a transparent, non-judgemental, and welcoming group where families could find support. Ms Greys added: "Being green shouldn't have to be a luxury. "It's something we can all do. "Toy Share Abergavenny is warm, non-judgemental and welcoming. "It's a space where no child has to miss out. "Where giving and receiving toys for free is just part of everyday life. "Where we celebrate second-hand, instead of seeing it as second-best." Toy Share Abergavenny is one of the four finalists in the Green Award category. The BBC Cymru Wales Make a Difference Awards 2025 received over 700 nominations. The finalists were selected based on their exceptional contributions to their communities. The winners will be announced at the awards ceremony on September 20 in Cardiff. The judging panel includes prominent BBC presenters such as Katie Owen, Lauren Price, Gethin Jones, Owain Wyn Evans, Bronwen Lewis, Iolo Williams, Olivia Breen, and Aleighcia Scott. The other categories include Carer, Community Group, Fundraiser, Great Neighbour, Key Worker, Unsung Hero, and Volunteer. Ms Greys encourages those interested in getting involved in Toy Share Abergavenny to find them on Facebook. She said: "Together, we're proving that sharing really is a greener, kinder and fairer way to play."

What to Watch in May: Your Guide to 130+ Premieres Across Broadcast, Cable and Streaming Matthew Gray Gubler's Einstein Delayed at CBS Until 2026-27 Season - Find Out Why 'Harry manages to escape the Greys and arrives back on Earth for a showdown with the Mantid alien, but soon finds he may not have what he needs to finish the job,' reads the official description. 'Asta and D'arcy struggle to keep a secret from Ben and Kate, who are both desperate to find answers to what has been happening to them. Sheriff Mike and Deputy Liv attempt to solve some mysterious deaths in Patience that Mike is beginning to think aren't caused by anything human.' In the official trailer (watch it below), the Mantid wastes no time taking over Harry's life on Earth, as the real Harry V. grows some serious facial hair while stuck behind bars on the moon. Harry also explains how the Greys have implanted an inhibitor inside of him, which blocks his true alien form — and disrupts his sweet (but kinda gross) relationship with Blue Avian Heather. In addition to leading man Alan Tudyk, returning for Season 4 are Sara Tomko, Alice Wetterlund, Corey Reynolds, Elizabeth Bowen, Levi Fiehler, Meredith Garretson and Judah Prehn. Gary Farmer, Gracelyn Awad Rinke, Jenna Lamia, Sarah Podemski, Linda Hamilton, Enver Gjokaj, Terry O'Quinn and Edi Patterson are also back, alongside new guest stars Jewel Staite (Firefly) and Stephen Root (Barry).

Resident Alien season 4: new network, plot twists, and release timeline

Resident Alien season 4 is gearing up for a return, with production currently underway in Vancouver and an estimated wrap date of March 31, 2025. Given previous production timelines, fans can expect a late summer or early fall 2025 release. A major change for the Alan Tudyk-led sci-fi comedy is its move from Syfy to USA Network, a decision aimed at expanding its audience and ensuring long-term viability. The series has already gained widespread popularity through streaming on Peacock and Netflix. Season 4 promises an action-packed storyline, focusing more on its extraterrestrial elements. The season 3 finale left fans with multiple cliffhangers: Tudyk's Harry Vanderspeigle was captured by the Greys, while the menacing Mantid assumed Harry's identity to infiltrate the town of Patience, Colorado. Tudyk will take on dual roles, playing both Harry and his villainous counterpart. The returning Resident Alien cast includes Sara Tomko, Alice Wetterlund, Corey Reynolds, Linda Hamilton, and Clancy Brown. Showrunner Chris Sheridan teased a darker, more intense season, embracing "more of the alien stuff," including human abductions, intergalactic conflicts, and a shapeshifting antagonist. The Mantid's ability to transform into anyone adds a thrilling mystery element, promising unexpected twists. Fans eagerly awaiting Resident Alien season 4 can catch up on previous seasons streaming on Peacock and Netflix.
