Story

Ty hafan needs our support! In 2021 the charity helped over 267 sick children, your support would be massive!

Some say I must be crazy, some say I must be mad,

But if there’s one that I’ve realised over the last year that I’ve had,

Is that I can conquer anything I set my mind upon,

So this Sunday I’ll be running The London Marathon.

I’ve had injuries to deal with, taken antibiotics by the bucket,

But after a lot of milling over, I’ve decided to say F**K IT!

Because after a whole year of not drinking, this has always been to me,

The final chapter on my journey of complete sobriety.

I’ve talked to family, friends and Laura my physio-supreme,

Who all agree that I should do it, that is the common theme.

So, I’ll be lining up on Sunday alongside 50,000 other runners,

School teachers, solicitors, Olympic athletes and plumbers.

It’s a bitter-sweet time for me, as I reflect on how far I’ve come,

And will be my motivation as around the London streets I run.

And in doing so I hope that I can raise much needed funds for,

Ty Hafan the children’s charity, for which I am an ambassador.

So if you could sponsor me for my efforts, it would mean the world to me,

And please SHARE and TAG to anyone who might have a spare quid or three!

Sadly, thousands of families in Wales live every day knowing their child’s life will be short. At the moment, they often face this without any care or support. Alone. Afraid. Isolated. Tŷ Hafan’s ambition is that when a child’s life will be short, no family should have to live it on their own.
