A BROTHER and sister from Cilgerran have taken part in a charity skydive to raise money for the Welsh Air Ambulance.

Ioan and Carys Davies have raised just under £700 after the jump at Swansea Airfield.

Ioan, 28, works in the power tool supply family business J Gerallt Davies in Cardigan, while Carys, 25, is an assistant artist manager for Harlequin Agency, in Cardiff Bay.

The family is no stranger to charity efforts, having raised around £2,500 over the years for organisations such as Breast Cancer Care and Tenovus Cancer Care.

Carys said: "Without a doubt one of the most amazing experiences we've ever had to date was completing the 12,000ft Tandem Skydive. It was all for a very worthy cause and we would like to thank everyone who sponsored us.”

Proud mum Rhian added: “You never know when you might need the air ambulance and it provides such a vital service that we would support it.”
