LLANILAR YFC has donated the £465 they raised carol singing to the Bronglais Chemo Appeal.

Jen Davies, one of the leaders of the YFC which has 17 members, said: “We wanted to support a local charity and we feel this is an important appeal and that a new chemotherapy day unit will be such a benefit to our local communities.”

Bridget said: “We are so grateful to Llanilar YFC for their fantastic support. It’s great to see local communities getting behind our Appeal and finding creative ways to fundraise.”

The Bronglais Chemo Appeal aims to raise the final £500,000 needed for construction to start on a new, purpose-built chemotherapy day unit for Bronglais Hospital, to greatly improve the patient experience.
