A Pembrokeshire Rotary club has been awarded £2,000 to help fund its work with disabled athletes.

Saundersfoot Rotary Club was given the cheque by Persimmon Homes West Wales as part of its Community Champions initiative.

The money will go towards supporting the club's work with the Tenderfoot Welsh Disabled Sports Club.

Saundersfoot Rotary Club trains and develops disabled athletes every year in a variety of sports, culminating in teams competing in the Welsh Disability Team Games.

The five-star housebuilder’s donation will support the Rotary’s annual fundraising in support of the club, its sporting activities, and equipment.

Ray Wise, from Saundersfoot Rotary Club, said: "Thank you to Persimmon for their kind donation.

"This money will help us at Saundersfoot Rotary Club to enhance Tenderfoot's activities and enable more people with disabilities to get involved in sports.

"Persimmon's donation will help us foster a strong sense of community and empowerment, making a difference to the lives of people with disabilities across West Wales."

The Community Champions scheme by Persimmon Homes West Wales donates £24,000 each year to community organisations and good causes in the areas it develops.

Sharon Bouhali, sales director at Persimmon Homes West Wales, said: "Our Community Champions scheme is all about supporting the areas we operate in, and the community champions who go above and beyond to support others in their local community.

"The work that the Saundersfoot Rotary Club does to improve the lives of people living with disabilities is heartwarming, so we are delighted to support their ongoing work."

In July, Pembrokeshire Coast National Park supported Persimmon’s proposed development of a new sustainable community of 72 high-quality homes in Saundersfoot.
