The Gwent branch of the Farmers’ Union of Wales is looking forward to a night at the races and are all set for their upcoming ‘Wooden Horse race’ night in aid of Alzheimer’s Society Cymru and the Farming Community Network.
The event will be held on Saturday, June 30, 7pm at Ty Oakley Farm, Hafodyrynys, by kind permission of Mr Howard Vicary.
The evening will see the auctioning of six wooden horses, for six separate races, which will then race over a short course with the winners receiving a cash prize.
In addition there will be £1 tote betting, with winner only pay outs.
FUW Gwent CEO Glyn Davies said: “The event promises to be an evening packed full of fun and entertainment, whilst raising money for good causes. There will also be a licensed bar and disco. I hope that many of you can make it and I look forward to seeing you all there.”
Tickets are priced at £10, to include a burger or hotdog, and are available from the county office -01873 853280 .
There is an option to stay overnight if you’re booking a caravan or tent pitch for £10.
