Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
I am running the London Marathon in aid of Ty Hafan Hospice.
Tŷ Hafan was established in 1999 to provide respite, palliative and end of life care to the children in Wales who suffer from life-limiting conditions. Life limiting conditions are those which mean that the child or young person is not expected to reach nineteen years of age.
Children suffer from various conditions, such as Duchenne Muscular Dystrophy, Cystic Fibrosis and Celebral Palsy. Some children are diagnosed at birth; others receive no diagnosis or at some point treatment is abandoned. Children and their families might receive their support for many years or just for a few days at the end of life. Either way, Tŷ Hafan provides love, care and support for the children and their families absolutely free of charge.
Tŷ Hafan is a registered charity and was established entirely from public donations. It now costs £2.5 million a year to run the hospice and all but 17% (Government funding) is raised through the generosity of their donors and supporters.
The £2.5 million a year to keep Ty Hafan's service going means that around 170 families with a life limited child and over 100 bereaved families get Ty Hafan's help absolutely free.
My target time is 3hours 30minutes, the more I raise I hope the faster I will go!! So please give generously.
