Spotlight for Children's Hospice Week

The letter, timed with Children’s Hospice Week run by Together for Short Lives, highlights holistic care given by dedicated teams who support families throughout a child’s life and into bereavement when needed. Kevin Clements of EACH said Kate’s profile has boosted awareness and fundraising, while Tŷ Hafan’s chief, Irfon Rees, welcomed her focus on hospices’ nurturing atmosphere.

Personal encounters

During a January 2025 visit to Tŷ Hafan the princess met staff and parents including Candice Jones and Anton Griffiths, who lost their daughter Winnie in July 2023 to Alexander’s Disease. The couple described Kate as calm and praised the hospice as a place of comfort and connection.
