As 2025 kicks off, the Farmers’ Union of Wales (FUW) will once again be hosting hearty breakfast events across Wales this January to bring people together, and raise money towards a good causes.

Breakfast is one of the most important meals of the day and it is a great opportunity for people of all ages and backgrounds to come together and enjoy a plate of premium produce.

The breakfasts form part of the FUW’s annual Farmhouse breakfast week, a stalwart of the Welsh agricultural calendar, which will see 24 breakfast events held across Wales this January.

The Brecon and Radnor event will take place on Thursday, January 23 at 11am at the FUW Pavilion, Builth Wells (LD2 3NJ). To book, please contact 01248 750250.

The week will also mark two milestones for the Farmers’ Union of Wales, as it celebrates 70 years since its formation in 1955, and 15 years since the county breakfast events were first trialled in Caernarfonshire in 2010.

The week will see the breakfasts dotted across Wales in farmhouses, village halls, cafes and livestock markets, as well as an event in Cardiff Bay. The event, sponsored by Welsh Liberal Democrat Leader and Mid and West Wales MS, Jane Dodds, will also see a speech from Deputy First Minister and Cabinet Secretary for Climate Change and Rural Affairs, Huw Irranca Davies MS.

Proceeds from the breakfasts will be donated towards the Wales Air Ambulance and other local charities. Last year’s FUW Farmhouse breakfast week raised over £17,500 towards the Wales Air Ambulance.

The FUW breakfasts are also an opportunity to promote and showcase the quality premium local produce that farmers grow in a sustainable way.

FUW President, Ian Rickman said: “From Llangefni to Llanarthne, the farmhouse breakfast week is one of the highlights of the year, providing an opportunity to start the day together with family, friends and neighbours, in a positive way and at the same time raise money towards our charitable causes.
