A PEMBROKESHIRE restaurant donated hundreds of pounds to a lifesaving charity.

The Helm restaurant in Pembroke Dock’s owner recently donated £450 to the Pembrokeshire members of Blood Bikes Wales.

The funds will be vital to the charity which relies on donations and sponsorships to continue its service helping the NHS all over Wales.
