spring/summer 2020
ng a hospice r the future We are refurbishing the entire hospice from top to bottom, including the child and family bedrooms, as well as all living spaces. By upgrading each of the ten children’s rooms, we will optimise space and improve all the facilities including airconditioning units and beds. Similarly, with the family rooms, we will create a private, homely and comfortable atmosphere. After consultation with families, the upstairs family area, with communal area and kitchen, needs to have a greater feeling of privacy, while still being welcome-to-use. We want to build a purpose-led therapeutic environment that meets the complex needs of both the child and their family, while always being inviting with bright open spaces.
Above all, we want children and their families to feel as comfortable at T ŷ Hafan as they do their own home. So these are very exciting times for Tŷ Hafan and the changes will be a much-needed boost to the charity. We’ve been absolutely blown away by the support we’ve received so far from members of the public, community groups, corporate supporters, and grants and trusts. This project, one that will ensure that Tŷ Hafan can be there for the families who need us well into the future, would never have been possible without our supporters. So, 20 years after you helped Suzanne Goodall open the first children’s hospice in Wales, you are there to help make sure we are fit for the future. Thank you.
