Grant makes trip happen
02/09/2008Pembrokeshire YFC has received a grant of £1,597 for an educational visit to London from the lottery-funded grants programme Make It Happen.
The money will fund the cost of a trip for the county's youth forum to the Houses of Parliament, where they will meet Preseli Pembrokeshire MP Stephen Crabb for a tour and to learn more about the workings of government.
Pembrokeshire YFC county chairman Rhiannon Llewellin said: "Last year we were able to take our young members to the Welsh Assembly and they were keen to have a similar experiene this year. But as a registered charity, we could never have afforded a trip to London, so the grant has made everything possible."
The trip will take place during the half term holiday on October 29th and is open to all members of Pembrokeshire YFC aged 18 and under.
