“Our fundraising group was set up in 1995, when Suzanne Goodall, the founder of Tŷ Hafan, came to give us a talk about her dream of a children’s hospice being built on the outskirts of our village.
Nearly 30 years later, we are still as enthusiastic and passionate about raising vital funds for Tŷ Hafan. Our previous events include quiz nights, a ladies pamper evening, curry night, family treasure hunt, summer ball and a Christmas grotto event with Father Christmas.”
