A FUNDRAISING dinner, including a question and answer session with top women sports stars, is being held at the Castle Hotel in Brecon from 7.30pm on Friday, June 29.

Kate (pictured) will be accompanied during the ride along the West Coast of the USA by former Olympic cyclist Becky James and ex-Wales rugby player Shane Williams.

The Q&A features Olympic gold medal-winning hockey star Crista Cullen, former Wales rugby player Jennifer Davies and ex-GB taekwondu star Maddie Davies. Tickets are on sale for £35 per person and include a course of “barbecue-themed” food and a dessert.
