A CHARITY golf day in Llandybie raised more than £2,500 for a local charity.
The golf day was organised by Rhys Kemp, who works for Hywel Dda University Health Board, and was held at Glynhir Golf Club in Llandybie.
It was held to raise money for The Wish Fund, a campaign run by Hywel Dda Health Charities – the official charity of the Hywel Dda University Health Board, and is supported by Scarlets Rugby.
The campaign will allow the paediatric palliative care service to create lasting memories for the children and young people in the service’s care with life-threatening and life-limiting conditions as well as their families.
Rhys said: “The fundraising was very successful with positive feedback received from all who attended.
“We raised a lot more than expected. The support I received from Robert O’Connell and Paul Evans was greatly appreciated as they gave me the freedom and help to make the event a huge success.
"I would also like to thank all the estates and compliance staff who attended as well as contractors for supporting the event – and hopefully supporting it in the future.”
The golf day raised £2,775 for the Wish Fund.
