Ty Hafan - the Children's Hospice in Wales

Tŷ Hafan is a leading Welsh children's charity providing palliative care to children and young people while supporting their families.

If you think this means we simply provide a place where children come to die, you couldn’t be further from the truth.

Our vibrant hospice and diverse community programmes provide comfort, care and support to children with life-limited conditions and their families.

We offer short-break care and help families feel confident enough to relax and not focus on being carers 24/7 – while making precious memories and ensuring a short life is a full life. And when a child is close to the end of their life, Tŷ Hafan becomes a family’s safe haven, by their side during their most difficult time – and for as long as they need us.

We have supported over 1,000 children and their families since opening in 1999. Every year we need to raise £4.5 million to enable us to deliver our services to families across Wales.

Tŷ Hafan is about creating a lifetime of memories to cherish. It’s about joy, laughter and allowing families to make the most of the time they have together.
