LÔN LAS CYMRU CHALLENGE

Aled and Gwylim Hopkin from Llanharry, will begin their 5-day, 254 mile journey through Wales next week on Monday 3rd August.

Starting in Holyhead, the Lôn Las Cymru trail follows Route 8 of the National Cycle Network and takes in some of Wales’ most breathtaking scenery, riding across three mountain ranges and finally ending in Cardiff Bay.

So far, they have raised over £1,100 for the Gareth Thomas Memorial Fund, and will be raising awareness of Cardiac Risk in the Young (CRY), a charity that works towards raising awareness of Sudden Death Syndrome (SDS) and campaigns for proactive screening of young people. It offers help and support to those who have suffered a loss, provides medical information, carries out Mobile Cardiac Screening and ECG Testing Programmes within local communities and contributes to medical research.

If you would like to donate to this very worthy cause, please visit their Just Giving site.

Good luck to you both, and I hope you have great time doing it for such a worthy cause. Pob lwc!
