About our Retail department:

T? Hafan currently has 17 charity shops, geographically spread from Cardigan in the west of Wales to Cwmbran in the east. Our dedicated Retail team plays a key role in raising essential funds to enable T? Hafan's care provision through our hospice and community programmes which support life-limited children and their families in Wales. We strive to be an innovative, supportive, and agile team, working to collectively deliver ambitious goals.



Our retail network raises money for the Charity from the sale of donated goods (mainly clothing, bric-a-brac and household goods) to the general public, a small amount of bought-in 'new' goods, and the sale of tickets for the charity's 'Crackerjackpot' weekly lottery. Income is also generated from cash donations, gift aid on donated goods and the sale of waste clothing and household goods to recycling merchants. Each salaried Shop Manager is supported by 1 or 2 salaried Deputies and/or a Salaried Sales Assistant and a team of volunteers.

About Ty Hafan's ambition:

When a child's life will be short, no family should have to live it on their own. Sadly, we know that thousands of families in Wales are struggling alone through the fear, exhaustion and uncertainty that comes with caring for a child whose life will be short. We believe that no family should have to live this on their own and we are determined to walk alongside every family through life, death and beyond.



At Ty Hafan we are experts at caring for children with life-shortening conditions and our services support families in our hospice, in community settings, local hospitals and in families' homes. We understand that the needs of each child and their family are unique and we know that caring for a child with a life-shortening condition is often extremely demanding. Our aim is to make sure that no one doing this is alone. Our colleagues, volunteers and supporters are crucial in the delivery of our ambition - we know that everyone plays a huge part in making sure that no family faces their child's short life alone.

Our Vision:

A Wales where every child with a life-shortening condition lives a fulfilling life, supported with the compassion and specialist care they and their family need.

Our Purpose:

No family should have to face the unimaginable loss of their child alone. With children and families at the heart of all we do, we provide free care and support in our hospice and in the community, offering a lifeline throughout the child's short life, at end of life, through bereavement and beyond.

Our Values:

At T? Hafan we make a difference by living our values: Demonstrating Compassion, Providing Excellent Service, Working Together and Taking Ownership.
