October 2010
Back in May 2010 Shepherd's Ice Cream offered to donate 2p from every cornet sold through their Hay-on-Wye shop.
These donations came to the grand sum of £1187.00 !!!
Our most grateful thanks to Shepherd's Ice Cream, to their friendly staff and to all the customers who enjoyed their cones.
So, if you love ice cream you know where to go !!!
The trust was formed for the benefit of the community of Hay-on-Wye, including those living within a ten mile radius of the Town Clock.
It provides financial assistance to persons wishing to undertake projects at home or abroad that will either advance their education or extend their professional expertise through voluntary work.
Work projects or study, may be undertaken independently or as a member of an approved group.
Remember 'Two Stubborn Women'?
These two stubborn women Jo Lord and Annie Day, both of Hay-on Wye, trained vigorously for some time preparing to run the gruelling `Marathon des Sables' in Morocco and so raise money for two charities Macmillan Cancer Support and North Weir Charitable Trust (NW Trust Hay). They completed the run successfully and thanks to the many generous folk who supported them both charities benefited considerably.
Trustees of the local charity NW Trust Hay wish to congratulate Annie and Jo on their great achievement and to thank them for the grand sum of *£4,954. 63 which they raised for this charity.
* Updated figure as at 4th July 2011
