Welcome to Pembrokeshire County Living magazine.
THE run up to Christmas is always an exciting time of year as our high streets dazzle with festive lights and tempting offers and shops make an extra special effort with their window displays. But for some families across the world this can be a particularly difficult time. In this festive issue of Pembrokeshire County Living we take a look at the work of Operation Christmas Child and what the efforts of hundreds of people in our county mean for children abroad.
This appeal for gifts is just one of the charitable campaigns taking place in the county this season look out in our sister newspaper the Western Telegraph for more including the annual PATCH (Pembrokeshire Action To Combat Hardship) toy appeal which helps children a little closer to home. Elsewhere in this edition of Pembrokeshire County Living we have details of some perfect stocking fillers including some of the latest books to feature our county in their pages. There are recipes from Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall¹s latest book about veg, including the perfect Christmas idea for red cabbage and parsnip, and more foodie inspiration with a look at the winners of this year¹s Wales True Taste Awards.
PCL photographer Lisa Soar has been on the trail of a Hollywood film crew at Marloes Sands and also capturing the delightful scenes of the Secret Light Garden event at Picton Castle.
Journalist Lee Day finds out what it is like to take your dogs on holiday for a hotel break plus we have snippets of news from around the county, glorious headwear from Ladies Day at the Pembrokeshire County Show, ideas for the home, and a festive what¹s on.
