F&D Website

New Calendar …

A new calendering system has this week been introduced on the website.

The upcoming events in the right hand column presents the next 8 events from the districts ie Llandyrnog, Llanasa, Llysfaen and Cefn.

A complete view can be viewed by choosing “Events” from the lower menu. Please take time to read the intro at the top of the page.

If it is felt that all events should be presented in the “Upcoming Events” in the right hand column, please feed back to your local secretaries.

Thanks … Fred

Cheshire Shield 2011 and the NW Air Ambulance

Dear All

Many thanks to you all – without your help we would never be able to raise such a sum.
