The MP for Mid and South Pembrokeshire has highlighted the community work of Haverfordwest County Football Club and called on the Minister of State for Sport, Stephanie Peacock MP, to join him in wishing the club success for the remainder of their season during CMS questions in Parliament.

MP Henry Tufnellsaid: “I was thrilled to highlight the incredible work carried out by Haverfordwest County across our community. Our local club facilities football sessions for school pupils through the brilliant Fit & Fed programme which also provides a healthy meal for pupils.

“Walking football sessions have also been a huge hit – making the beautiful game accessible for so many people, irrespective of ability or age. I know the real difference access to sport can have for communities, and Haverfordwest County are making an amazing impact in our county.

“So, I was delighted that the Minister could join me in applauding Haverfordwest County and wishing them luck for the rest of the season.”

Harry Thomas, Community Manager at Haverfordwest County AFC said: “I would like to sincerely thank Henry Tufnell MP and Minister of State for Sport, Stephanie Peacock MP, for recognising our club’s community work in Parliament recently.

“It is truly rewarding to see our efforts acknowledged at this level, and it reinforces our dedication to make a meaningful impact on our local community.

“This recognition means so much to everyone at the club, and we look forward to expanding our community provision in the near future.”

Haverfordwest county has recently benefited from a £75,000 investment from Welsh Government for their new 3G pitch, which was officially opened earlier this year.

This investment is part of a wider £3.5 million allocation from the Welsh Government to support sports projects.

Haverfordwest County’s next match at Bridge Meadow Stadium will be against Penybont on Friday, March 21.
