MONMOUTH Rugby Club’s chairman has been part of a drive that has raised £50,000 for a charity this year.

Lloyd Davies, who is also managing director at Newport-based conveyancing firm Convey Law, has spearheaded an UK-wide industry fundraising revolution in 2015, raising thousands of pounds for charity.

The company devised its own fundraising scheme to raise money for their chosen charity, Ty Hafan.

Convey Law was recognised for its contribution to fundraising earlier in the year at the IoD Wales Awards when Lloyd was named winner of the Director for Leadership in Corporate Responsibility award category.

Lloyd said: “I am immensely proud of the Convey Law team. Their passion for fundraising is really inspirational, and everyone takes part in some way.

“I am also delighted to have received such incredible support from the UK conveyancing industry this year in raising funds for the children and their families at the Ty Hafan hospice – thank you all for your generosity and kindness.”

As part of further fundraising efforts, Lloyd will take part in an epic charity cycle ride from Cardiff to Dublin in February.
