The South Wales Support Group, with which Jean and Carol are heavily involved, have raised over £3000 this year, a significant amount of it through 2 events in the village. In July, Jean’s afternoon tea at Jancariad, which included a sale of books and plants, raised £650 whilst Carol’s School Christmas Dinner on 3 December raised £750 on the night. This will be match-funded, with Gift Aid to be added. Carol and Jean thank everyone in the village who supported these events to raise such splendid sums.
Carol and Jean attended the Supporters annual Afternoon Tea and Carol Concert in London, where they met Ruth Jones (Gavin and Stacey, Stella) who spoke in support of the charity. She volunteered to help with a fundraising event here next year so if you an idea for something a bit different, tell Carol or Jean! Otherwise, watch this space!!
