The Prince of Wales will help celebrate the 125th anniversary of a local newspaper during a day-long visit to Wales later.

He begins in Abergavenny meeting staff at the local newspaper and marking a milestone anniversary of a sister publication, the Brecon and Radnor Express.

Later he is due to visit historic Tredegar House, near Newport, and attend a reception for one of his charities.

PRIME Cymru, the Prince's Initiative for Mature Enterprise in Wales, and supporters will be attending a celebration of its Enterprise Mentoring programme.

The Prince's pre-Christmas visit to Wales concludes in the afternoon with a tour to Ewenny Priory, near Bridgend.

The priory is the most complete Norman church in South Wales, and remains at the centre of a thriving Christian community.

Before leaving the church, the Prince will listen to carols sung by children from the choir of St Brides Major Church in Wales Primary School.
