Rhondda Cynon Taf’s Mayor’s Charity Appeal is definitely on the road to success – thanks to a classic contribution from one of its key supporter.
Mayor Cllr Robert Smith attended the November meeting of the Glamorgan Classic Car Club this week, where he was presented with £1200 that the organisation had raised at the successful Tonyrefail Classic Car Show.
Cllr Smith was amazed by the amount raised, which will be added to the growing funds in his Charity Appeal, formed to benefit his chosen good causes of Help for Heroes, Diabetes UK (Cymru) and Macmillan Cancer Support.
He thanked the community-minded club for their cheque, which was made possible thanks to the effort they put into organising annual Tonyrefail Classic Car Show, for the benefit of the community, supported by Rhondda Cynon Taf Council.
Cllr Smith said: “I am so touched by the generosity of the Glamorgan Classic Car Club, who already contribute so much in terms of their time and effort to make the Classic Car Show a success.
“Congratulations must also be given to them as they celebrate their 10th anniversary this year.”
“This cheque is gratefully received on behalf of my chosen charities and I look forward to the Council’s continued partnership with the Glamorgan Classic Car Club as we push forward to make the Tonyrefail show even bigger and better in 2010.”
