The St. David’s Day concert, which was arranged by the Mayor of Colwyn Bay, Phil Edwards, was the first ever to be held in the newly built Rhos on Sea Chapel. It was a sell out. The event was recorded by BBC Radio Wales, attended by the Colwyn Male Voice Choir and conducted by Trystan Lewis.
‘ The icing on the cake was that we managed to raised almost £800 more for my charities (St. David’s hospice & Ty Gobaith) which I think would have pleased Saint David no end as we did our little thing to help others, which was of course his motto - Do the little things/Gwnewch y pethau bychain’. said Phil.
The next project is a Charity Indian Dinner at Cinnamon Lodge, Colwyn Bay on 16th March.
Tickets are £10 a head and are available from Phil Edwards on 01492 548741 or 07855 823989.
