Lampeter fashion show raises £1,000 for Glangwili Hospital
The event, organised by staff at Bro Teifi Nursery, raised £1,045 for the Cilgerran Ward at Glangwili Hospital.
The show was held at The Porth Hotel and featured clothing from Lampeter-based boutique Lan Lloft a Duet.
Hannah Thomas, a staff member from the nursery, said: "At the nursery, we look after young children, and we decided to raise funds for Cilgerran Ward at Glangwili Hospital as one never knows when you may need to use the local children's ward.
"A week after the fashion show, my six-year-old broke his arm and needed an operation and he spent a night on Cilgerran.
"I was so grateful for the wonderful care and support they provided us as a family, which gave me reassurance during his treatment and stay on the ward.
"Thank you to the local community who purchased tickets and supported the evening.
"Also, to local businesses who donated raffle prizes and The Porth Hotel for the use of the room and nibbles on the night."
Nicola Llewelyn, head of Hywel Dda Health Charities, said: "The support of our local communities enables us to provide services over and above what the NHS can provide in the three counties of Hywel Dda and we are very grateful for every donation we receive."
The charity supports NHS services across Carmarthenshire, Ceredigion, and Pembrokeshire.
