A popular road race has raised £450 for our hospices.

Organised by Colwyn Bay Athletic Club (CBAC), the memorial Arthur Bebbington Twin Piers race took place on 13th January 2024 between the famous piers of Llandudno and Colwyn Bay. It was kindly sponsored by Grand Prix Express and Jones Bros Civil Engineering.

After a four year hiatus due to the Covid 19 pandemic and extensive roadworks on the route, the 10km main race along the coast also saw a 3km fun run.

Arthur Bebbington was a long serving member of CBAC, giving 30 years of his life to sports in the area.

On the day, his grandson Daniel Bebbington won the main race in a time of 29m 47s which was a wonderful tribute to Arthur.

Club members decided to donate a portion of the race's profit to our hospices and recently presented us with a cheque for £450 under the lights at Eirias Park Stadium where they train.

Thank you so much CBAC and we look forward to working together again in the future.
