School Fundraiser: Over a number of years The Cefn Cribwr Athletic Club Riders (cyclists gang) have raised more than £45,000 for charities such as Velindre cancer Hospital, Prostate Cymru and St Michael’s Children’s Hospital plus contributi­ng to rides such as the Emyr Owen’s Brecon Ride.

On Sunday, March 25 they are planning a nice gentle coastal ride around Aberavon and Porthcawl and then back to Cefn Cribwr AC (approx 30 miles) to raise funds for the observatio­n unit at Cefn Cribwr Primary school.

An ideal training ride and preparatio­n for those more demanding rides later in the cycling season.

They would appreciate your support; the entrance fee is £20 and all proceeds will go to the observatio­n unit of Cefn school.

Please contact Mike Kelly, Sam Young and Tom Walford at the club for more details and to order your event number. They would love to have 50 riders on board to enable them to raise at least a £1,000 for the school.

Become A Dementia Friend: If you are interested in helping Cefn Cribwr become a dementia friendly community please come along to an awareness session being held at the Green Hall, Cefn Cribwr, on Wednesday, March 14, 6pm-7pm.

Dementia Friends (an Alzheimer’s Society initiative) gives people an understand­ing of dementia and the small things that you can do that make a difference.
