Criw Talgarreg is a group of people from the Talgarreg community. They raised the funds for the Chemotherapy Day Unit at Glangwili Hospital, Maggie’s, and Kidney Wales.
Allana Silvestri-Jones, a member of Criw Talgarreg, said: “Back in October 2024, a dedicated group from Talgarreg, known as Criw Talgarreg, took on the Cardiff Half Marathon in a powerful and dedicated show of community spirit, raising an incredible £12,600 for three charities close to our hearts.
“The run was fun and challenging and we managed to raise £4,240 for each charity. We’d like say thank you to everyone for their support, it was amazing. The whole community was behind us all the way.”
Katie Hancock, Fundraising Officer, said: “Thank you so much to everyone in Criw Talgerrag who took part in the Cardiff Half Marathon last year. You raised an incredible amount for the Chemotherapy Day Unit and other special charities. It has been fantastic to have your support.
“The generosity 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 extremely grateful for every donation we receive.”
