A PEMBROKESHIRE ukulele group has chosen a beloved local charity to be its charity partner.
The Slipway Ukes, based in Saundersfoot, have chosen Paul Sartori Foundation’s Paul Sartori Hospice at Home to be its charity partner and will be raising money for the vital cause throughout the next year.
The Slipway Ukes have been going for just over a year and delight audiences with fun and interactive gigs. The band’s Nigel said: “We’ve been touched by the work of Paul Sartori Hospice at Home in recent month, and that got us thinking about what we could do to support. As a group we don’t charge for our performances, so we can invite donations from venues and audiences.

“We enjoy what we do, and raising money for such a good cause adds to the enjoyment and gives us even more vigour to perform at our best. We’re really looking forward to this partnership!”
