FUW Insurance for Fferm Ffactor's first female winner

North Wales farmer Gwenno Pugh, the first female winner of the popular S4C series Fferm Ffactor with its prize of a new Isuzu D-Max Yukon 4x4, has driven the vehicle away with free insurance for a whole year - thanks to FUW Insurance.

"We're pleased to be associated with Fferm Ffactor and Gwenno's fantastic achievement and sponsoring the insurance on her new Isuzu is part of our determination to support young farmers across Wales," said Farmers' Union of Wales north Meirionnydd area officer Eirian Lloyd Hughes.

"Sponsoring the insurance on her new vehicle also gives us the chance to show that we can offer competitive insurance rates for all rural-based businesses.

"FUW Insurance is supported by a panel of specialist agriculture and commercial insurance companies and our field force of 32 area officers and management team work closely with farmers to make sure they have the cover needed to protect their businesses.

"Our staff understands the needs of the rural community and will be there when needed to give all our rural business customers a professional, locally-based service."

Gwenno, 28, farms sheep, cattle and pigs with her husband Gwion on their farm in Talsarnau, near Harlech, and also helps her father, FUW member Selwyn Hughes, on his farm at Tyn Llan, Penmynydd, Anglesey.

She said: "I entered the competition just hoping to become the first female contestant to reach the final but to go the extra step and actually win was an unbelievable feeling.

“It was such a privilege to become the first woman to win Fferm Ffactor since the series began in 2009. I'm delighted with my new Isuzu and getting free insurance from FUW really is a wonderful bonus," said Gwenno.

FUW member and Fferm Ffactor contestant Dylan Jones also won a new Yahama Grizzly 450 EPS ATV farm bike, a Logic OXR off-road trailer and - courtesy of FUW Insurance - a year's worth of insurance following a quad race during the series.

Dylan, 42, a part-time farmer from Bodffordd, Anglesey, completed the course quicker than the remaining contestants at the halfway stage of the 2013 Fferm Ffactor series.
