A recent coffee morning held by the Eglwyswrw Village Association, raised a fantastic amount of money for local Hospice at Home charity. The Village Association Committee members organised the successful coffee morning, which took place on Saturday 3rd December in the Old School Hall in Eglwyswrw. The coffee morning was held in aid of Paul Sartori Foundation.

At the coffee morning they also held a small auction which proved very popular. They raised a staggering amount of money, totalling in £1150.00 for the charity, who provide a range of services to Pembrokeshire people living in the final stages of a life-limiting illness, including home nursing care and equipment loan.

Mandy Phillips, Chair of the Eglwyswrw Village Association said “The money was raised to thank Paul Sartori charity for the wonderful care given to families in our Community at a very difficult time in their lives – we truly are grateful and long may this amazing charity continue its good work.”
