Members of Carmarthen Town AFC are carrying on a tradition started by former treasurer Nigel Williams, who sadly passed away recently.
Nigel was instrumental in organising charity cycle events during his long relationship with the club.
These events will continue in honour of Nigel.
This year, club members will be cycling to raise money for Ty Cymorth (the club’s nominated charity for this year) and the Carmarthen Town AFC Community Programme.
The Ty Cymorth Day Care Centre in Carmarthen provides a service for people facing a life changing illness and their families.
Their aim is to enrich the person’s quality of life, promote their independence, offer opportunities to empower the person to make their own personal choices within a safe therapeutic environment and provide education, information, support and advice for both patients and families.
The Carmarthen Town AFC Community Programme, sponsored by EMC Services, is based at Richmond Park, Carmarthen. It incorporates a brand new community centre offering match day hospitality, social facilities, conference facilities and a programme of events for learning and leisure.
The event will be a circular ride of 240 miles beginning and finishing at Carmarthen Town AFC from 11-14th April 2012. The aim is to visit Aberystwyth Town AFC, Newtown AFC, Port Talbot AFC, Afan Lido AFC, Neath AFC and Llanelli AFC football grounds.
The cyclists left Carmarthen at 12.30 today.
