Easter bunnies hop into action for Ty Gobaith Hospice

COVID has thwarted fundraising for much of the past year, but Llandudno Rotary has taken to the streets again and eight Rotarians, disguised as Easter Bunnies stepped into action to relieve the towns people of some of their cash for Ty Gobaith.

Despite glorious weather, COVID impacted adversely on the collection. Reduced footfall, plus an increasing number of people not carrying coinage with them currently, led to a collection of £124.62.

In the light of previous years' experience, this was less than the club had hoped for, but nevertheless Llandudno Rotary Club resolved to match the generosity of those who gave and raised the donation to £250.

Beverley Bradley, Conwy Fundraiser for Ty Gobaith responded; "Thank you for organising this collection. Our children and families need support more than ever and it is because of the support of our communities that we are able to keep providing vital care for those who need us."

The club looks forward to a talk from Beverley on the important work that Ty Gobaith does, and members look forward, post-COVID, to a visit to the Hospice, which nestles in the beautiful Conwy Valley.
