The Pembrokeshire branch of the Farmers’ Union of Wales has organised a bingo evening in aid of British Heart Foundation Cymru, on Thursday November 10.
The event will be held at Haverfordwest Cricket Club and doors open at 7.30pm with eyes down from 8pm.
FUW Pembrokeshire County Executive Officer Rebecca Voyle said: “I would like to extend a warm welcome to all of our members and friends of the Union to join us for what promises to be a fun evening. We hope that as many as possible will join us on the night to help us raise money to support the fantastic work BHF Cymru do.”
BHF are the nation’s heart charity and the largest independent funder of cardiovascular research. Coronary heart disease is the UK’s single biggest killer and their pioneering research has helped to transform the lives of people living with heart and circulatory conditions and their work has been central to the discoveries of vital treatments that are helping to change the face of the UK’s fight against heart disease.
Jayne Lewis, BHF Cymru’s local Fundraising Manager, said: “It is partners like FUW who help to get our work off the ground to find even more discoveries into heart defects and treatments. With 1 in 4 people dying of heart disease in Wales, and over 350,000 living with its burden there is still much more we need to know about how to stop this devastation.
“Funds raised by our supporters help us in this fight. Our research journey over the last 50 years has been phenomenal but until research provides all the answers, we are committed to supporting heart patients and their families to get the best possible care and advice. Well done FUW for your help and support."
