| In 2003, The Joshua Foundation
was donated a large detached house in the West Wales
town of Fishguard. This property, which was donated to
us by Mr Carey George, has undergone a £100,000
refurbishment (courtesy of the Zurich Foundation) and
has been transformed into tranquil and relaxing luxury
apartments, aiming to offer a soothing holiday retreat
for children with cancer.
On the 8th May 2004, The Joshua Foundation cut the
ribbon and the apartments were officially
opened.
Fishguard
Located on the
beautiful Pembrokeshire coast, Fishguard is a fantastic
base from which to visit the spectacular coastlines,
beaches and fun family attractions, the county has to
offer. There are a lovely selection of shops, and is the
home of the Irish ferry. The upper town is very busy,
with friendly pubs and good places to eat and has a
leisure centre with a swimming pool, situated at the
back of the Fishguard School. In contrast the lower town
is much older and nestles around the old fishing
harbour, where the river Gwaun rushes out towards the
sea. Famous films have been made here, Dylan Thomas`
Under Milkwood, and Orson Wells classic` Moby Dick.
Fishguard is also famous for the place where the last
invasion of Britain took place in 1797, when the French
landed ashore.
