Text WALES to 70140 to donate £3 to the China Trek and help us make sure a short life is a full life. Visit www.tyhafan.org/china for terms and conditions. Tŷ Hafan is the hospice for children in Wales. Its services are available throughout Wales and are free to any family that needs them. Tŷ Hafan provides specialist palliative care addressing the physical, emotional, social and spiritual needs of each member of the family. The majority of Tŷ Hafan’s work is about “quality of life” rather than “end of life”. It is focused on “making the most of short and precious lives.” Tŷ Hafan provides care for the whole family – from diagnosis we journey with them and are there for as long as they need us. Tŷ Hafan never stops caring for the bereaved. Tŷ Hafan is not a hospital and is very different from an adult hospice. A child and his/her family can be referred at the time of diagnosis with care and support being provided throughout the course of the child’s condition which can be for many years. Tŷ Hafan provides support to the whole family almost anywhere, whether it is at the hospice, their own home or in hospital. It costs more £3.7 million every year to provide Tŷ Hafan’s services to those families that need them. Tŷ Hafan’s income is generated by public donations, fundraising and its commercial activities, principally its lottery and shops.
