MEIRIONNYDD YFC have raised more than £4,000 at a charity cabaret evening.

Meirionnydd YFC held an auction of promise and show night to help raise funds towards Wales Buy a Brick Campaign and County Federation last month.

The money will go to a campaign supporting the purchase of lease for the YFC building on the national show ground, Llanelwdd.

The night was held at Dinas Mawddwy Hall that was full up of potential purchasers and supporters of the organisation, collecting an impressive £4,126.

Performances that were part of the cabaret were the acclaimed Meirionnydd YFC choir conducted by Arfon Williams of Cwmtirmynach, who is also the county’s president.

Solo singing by Tomos Heddwyn, Prysor ac Eden and Mared Jones, Dinas Mawddwy and many more outstanding sketches and performances from members also took place.

Following a varied cabaret, the evening was then in the hands of Huw Gerallt Williams, from Cwmtirmynach.
