Ty Nant Times

Ty Nant Natural Mineral Water was the official water for The British Professional Short Course Championship at Nailcote Hall, 14-15 August 2001. There was also a Pro-Am Golf Day on the 13th August, with gala dinner, in honour of Max Faulkner's 50th anniversary of his British Open win.

This professional golf competition, which was established in 1933, is also fundraising event for the children's charity, The Variety Club.

Ty Nant Natural Mineral Water was the sponsor of the Liberty's 1st Ladies Fashion Week, launched in Regent Street 21-25 May 2001. The focus was on Liberty's key collections for Autumn/Winter 2001.

Representatives from each of the design houses were on hand to explain the rationale behind their collections, as well as giving hot style tips for this summer!

Ty Nant supplied the refreshments for a variety of events, which included makeovers, designer fashion shows and fashion workshops.

In March 2001, the annual Ty Nant photography award, now in it's 3rd year, once again produced innovative and outstanding entries from the photography students at The West Wales School of the Arts at Coleg Sir Gâr.
