Former mayor of Llantwit Major Ralph Austin has received support from Vale MP Alun Cairns and Llantwit Councillor Tony Bennett as he trains for a parachute jump in aid of Wales Air Ambulance.
Mr Austin will be making a tandem parachute jump at an Army airfield in Salisbury on 12th September, with the support of The Parachute Regiment Association – which he is chairman.
Mr Cairns said: “I pay tribute to Ralph Austin who is taking such a brave step in doing the jump for charity. He spent many years in the Parachute Regiment as a professional, and now Wales Air Ambulance will benefit from his fundraising endeavours.”
