By including a precious gift in your will to Tŷ Hafan, you can ensure many more families benefit from our life-changing services long into the future.
Already, gifts in wills are absolutely vital to our services. They fund 25% of the care we provide to children with life-limiting conditions.
But looking to the future, these special gifts are going to become even more critical to us and the families we help. That’s because due to advances in treatment and care, we expect more children who are born with or develop a life-limiting condition to live longer and need our specialist support.
So, please do consider including a gift in your will to Tŷ Hafan. It truly is a rewarding way to support children and families at our hospice, ten, 20, even 50 years from now.
Discover how gifts in wills help Tŷ Hafan be a lifeline to families like Ollie’s and ensure they enjoy priceless moments together.

Recently, I amended my will and Tŷ Hafan was a definite choice to be included. I know donations via wills are important to charities, and I am pleased to be able to feel that I can leave a legacy to Tŷ Hafan. Keep up the brilliant work!
