Another way you can help improve the lives of the families we support is by asking your loved ones to buy you a Tŷ Hafan caring gift for your wedding, birthday or anniversary.
They range in value from £5 to £500 and are a wonderful option if you want to help children and young people with life-shortening conditions have fun, communicate and grow in confidence.

The reason I picked the Tŷ Hafan badges for our wedding favours was due to our late father, who was a supporter of Tŷ Hafan, he donated every month to the charity and then when he sadly passed away we set up a Charity fund so that all proceeds went to the charity that he had chosen which was Tŷ Hafan so when we started wedding planning it was a no brainer for us that we would choose Tŷ Hafan badges for our favours and donated money at the same time.
