The Farmers' Union of Wales were delighted to sponsor the recent public speaking competitions run by Clwyd YFC federation. The English-speaking event was held at Treuddyn and the Welsh version at Dewi Sant School, Rhyl.

Cheques for £100 were presented to representatives of Clwyd YFC at each event by local FUW branch members.

FUW Denbighshire and Flintshire county executive officer Rhys Roberts said the union is always happy to support the YFC movement, both locally and nationally, and believes that public speaking is a great way for members to improve their communication skills.

"It also allows them to gain confidence in airing their views on a variety of topics," Mr Roberts added.
