Hoffai’r clwb ddiolch yn ddiffuant i Gwen a Graham Rees a’r teulu am eu rhodd hael iawn, sydd wedi ein galluogi i brynu 6 bwrdd rasio er cof am eu mab, Dylan, aelod annwyl o gymuned Achub Bywyd o’r Môr Poppit, y mae colled fawr ar ei ôl.

❤️💙

The club would like to offer their sincerest gratitude to Gwen and Graham Rees and family for their very generous donation, enabling us to purchase a set of 6 racing boards in memory of their son, Dylan, a much missed member of the Poppit Sands Surf Lifesaving community.

❤️💙

👀 Ydych chi wedi gweld ein trelar newydd?
Rydym yn falch iawn o rannu ein bod wedi llwyddo i sicrhau cyllid drwy Gronfa Gwella Sir Benfro.
Mae’r trelar wedi’i addasu i’n anghenion ac yn ychwanegiad gwych at ein clwb sy’n parhau i dyfu. Bydd yn ein helpu i gludo offer yn ddiogel ac yn effeithlon i gystadlaethau a digwyddiadau, tra hefyd yn darparu lle storio ychwanegol y mae mawr ei angen ar gyfer offer ac adnoddau’r clwb.
Diolch yn fawr i Gyngor Sir Penfro Pembrokeshire County Council am gefnogi’r prosiect hwn drwy Gronfa Gwella Sir Benfro, ac i’n cyflenwyr lleol Riverlea, CTP Fabrications a Boomerang am eu harbenigedd a’u cefnogaeth wrth wireddu’r prosiect.
Edrychwn ymlaen at ei ddefnyddio’n llawn wrth i ni barhau i gefnogi ein haelodau a chynrychioli’r clwb mewn cystadlaethau ledled Cymru a thu hwnt!

👀 Have you seen our new trailer?
We’re delighted to share that we have been successful in securing funding through the Enhancing Pembrokeshire Fund.
Our fully customised box trailer is a fantastic addition to our ever-growing club. It will help us transport equipment safely and efficiently to competitions and events, while also providing much-needed additional storage for club kit and resources.
A huge thank you to Pembrokeshire County Council Pembrokeshire County Council for supporting this project through the Enhancing Pembrokeshire Fund, and to our local suppliers Riverlea, CTP Fabrications and Boomerang for their expertise and support in bringing the trailer to life.
We look forward to putting it to good use as we continue to support our members and represent the club at competitions across Wales and beyond!

Yn ddiweddar, cynhaliodd CABM Poppit Sands eu cwrs hyfforddi IRB cyntaf erioed ar gyfer 10 o aelodau’r clwb.
Cynhaliwyd y cwrs dros fisoedd yr haf, ac ar ei ddiwedd cafodd yr aelodau eu hasesu ym Mhorthmawr ddydd Sadwrn mewn amodau heriol.
Roedd y cwrs a’r asesiad yn cynnwys dysgu am y cwch, ei lansio, technegau achub, gyrru a gweithdrefnau argyfwng, ynghyd ag ystod eang o sgiliau eraill mewn amodau syrffio.
Mae ein cwch achub yn darparu gwasanaeth diogelwch ar gyfer hyfforddiant, asesiadau, digwyddiadau, ac i gynorthwyo gyda gweithrediadau achub pan fo angen.
Rydym yn hynod falch o’r 8 aelod a basiodd fel criw, ac o’r 2 aelod a gymhwysodd fel gyrwyr.
Diolch enfawr i Ron, asesydd CABM Cymru, a deithiodd o CABM Y Rhws i gynnal yr asesiadau, ac i Martin o CABM Porthmawr, sydd hefyd wedi ein hasesu a’n cefnogi drwy gydol y daith.
Edrychwn ymlaen at ddatblygu ein sgiliau ymhellach a chynnal rhagor o hyfforddiant dros y misoedd nesaf. 🚤🌊

Poppit Sands SLSC recently ran their first ever IRB training course for 10 of their members.
The course ran over the summer months and culminated in an assessment at Whitesands on Saturday in some challenging surf conditions .
The course and assessment involved learning about the boat , launching , rescues , driving and emergency procedures amongst other skills in surf conditions.
Our rescue boat provides safety cover for training , assessments, events and is also available to assist with Ocean rescues.
We are so proud of all 8 of our members who passed out as crew and 2 of our members who passed out as drivers .
A huge thank you to Ron , SLSA Wales assessor who travelled down from Rhoose Surf Lifesaving Club🌊 to assess and also to Martin Charlton from Porthmawr SLSC who also assessed and has helped us on our journey .
We look forward to further training over the coming months .
