Date of news/blog: 5th September 2019Famous Abergavenny-raised singer, Bryn Yemm, paid a visit to Foxhunters Care Community this week to see his favourite schoolteacher and Foxhunters resident, Miss Brown.

“No matter where in the world I perform, I am proud to proclaim, ‘I am from Wales – the land of song’”.

Miss Brown was absolutely delighted with the surprise visit from her old pupil and spent the afternoon catching up with him over a cup of tea and chatting about the years gone by.
