Royals step up to help after food bank burglary in Swansea

Prince William and Kate Middleton have offered to replace all the food stolen from a foodbank at St Thomas Church in Swansea, which they visited last year. The church-run foodbank was broken into, and all the food supplies were stolen, leaving hungry people to be turned away. The Prince and Princess of Wales contacted Reverend Steve Bunting to offer their love and support and replace the stolen food. The church has been running the food bank for around seven years and supports up to 200 people.

Avian flu outbreak detected among swans in Swansea and Massachusetts.

Avian flu, also known as bird flu, has been identified as the cause of death for a cluster of swans in Swansea, Massachusetts. The virus is highly contagious among birds but is not commonly seen in humans. The town is advising residents to avoid contact with wild birds and to take care not to expose their domestic flocks to the virus. The U.S. Department of Agriculture has reported cases of HPAI in wild birds in several other counties in Massachusetts this year.
