Two generous Aberystwyth businesses have stepped up to support local children and families.

Carys Boyle Ceramics and staff from NatWest Bank in the town have both taken on the £50 Challenge.

Our fundraiser Bekki Fardoe explains: “Our £50 Challenge sees us give a £50 investment to local businesses, schools and community groups with the challenge of them multiplying it by as much as they can in 50 days.

“This could be anything from coffee morning to raffles or car washes to auctions.

“We are thrilled that kind businesses in Aberystwyth such as Carys Boyle Ceramics and NatWest have chosen to support us as we look to grow awareness of our vital services in Ceredigion.

“There are so many families in the county we have not yet reached and who could really benefit from our support. With the option of accessing either of our two hospices in Oswestry or Conwy, we could offer families a real lifeline through our respite breaks and family support services.”

Great events

Carys of Carys Boyle Ceramics shared: “I first heard about Hope House Tŷ Gobaith when I was contacted by Bekki to see if I’d like to take part.

“I thought it was such a wonderful cause that I said yes.

“I will be offering friends and customers the chance to paint a drinks coaster with special glazes that turn bright and shiny when I fire them in the kiln.

“I’ve already had one group over.”
