On August Bank Holiday weekend the Royal Oak Inn, Saundersfoot staged live entertainment in aid of Velindre Cancer Hospital, Cardiff. The weekend was a huge success and £11,024 was raised for Velindre. This couldn’t have been achieved without the generosity of the artists who gave their services free and also the public who attended.

The Royal Oak would like to thank Butch, Daz as well as Rocking Rod’s band and also Wally Marr who joined in with a few classics. Massive thanks to Ponty, Jan, Pat, Jane & Lizzie who sold raffle tickets before and during the weekend. The raffle bucket collection was £2,576 with donations of five thousand from various local businesses. The Royal Oak contributed the remainder.

Chris would like to personally thank all the staff for making the event such a success, to Butch who helped put the event together and also Ponty for road traffic management. The pub would also like to thank everyone for the amazing support they had received and the behaviour of those attending. The atmosphere over the three nights was excellent.

The Royal Oak would like to arrange other charity nights throughout the year and are already making arrangements for their next fundraising event.
