The St David’s Hospice Summer Fete is taking place on Saturday 31st July, 1pm onwards in the grounds of the hospice, Abbey Rd, Llandudno. It looks to be a fantastic day with lots of stalls to grab a bargain at including books, bric a brac, plants, cakes, hand made goods and entertainment including Beulah Brass Band, fortune telling from Madame Moanalot, a magician and a bouncy castle. In the event of bad weather, it will be taking place in the Loreto Hall, next to the hospice.
Donations would be gratefully received for all stalls please contact Marie on 01492 873664 or bring to the hospice itself.
The 1st August is the last date to send in your registration forms for the St David’s Hospice Dawn Walk. A women only, sponsored 9 mile walk from Conwy to Llandudno (return) starting at first light. Last year three hundred women took part in this event, raising over £20,000 for adult palliative care in North West Wales. This together with the fantastic spirit of the walkers made it an event to remember. Many women also choose to walk in memory of someone they have lost, as the beauty of the Conwy Estuary in the early morning light makes it the perfect time to remember a loved one.
For a registration form please contact the fundraisers on 01492 873664 or go to www.stdavidshospice.org.uk/fundraising/54.
