Our inaugral meeting was held on the 24th of October 2008 when we began with around 20 members, within two years that had more than doubled to 55.
We held our first fund raising run in November 2008 when, in memory of a good friend and enthusiast Elvyn Meldrum, we raised, £1700 for Glangwilli Hospital diabetes charity.
Since 2009 we have held an annual fund rasing tractor run on May day bank holiday, our first run raised £3000 for the chemotherapy unit at our local hospital in fond memory of Gwynlais Jones a local legend within the vintage tractor community. In 2010 we raised a staggering £3850 for the West Wales Air Ambulance in
recognition of their vital work in saving lives and helping Gwyndaf Davies a local young carpenter in a tragic accident. 2011 saw the club raise £2700 for Glangwilli and Singleton special care baby units.
We were pleased to have helped support the National Vintage Tractor Run in 2011, held locally in Pembrokeshire and breaking all previous attendance records - Any local club that is holding an event and would like support please let us know, we would be more than pleased to attend, likewise if anyone wishes to join us on our annual run you are more than welcome!
