Story

This bike ride is inspired by the amazing young man who's picture you see. Michael Rogers was an amazing young man who always saw the positives in life.

As a young child Michael was diagnosed with Muscular Dystrophy. The doctors told Michael and his wonderful mother Julie that he wouldnt make it past a set age. However Michael was a little soldier and managed to prove these doctors wrong by living way past the given age.

Michael was a keen visitor of Ty hafan and always enjoyed a friendly, loving and caring atmosphere. Not only did Ty Hafan give Michael respite from home but also gave Julie (a devoted mother and carer of Michael) a break from the 24 hour care that Michael came to need later in his life.

Ty hafan do not recieve as much governmental funding as they deserve and heavily depend upon generous donations!

Please give generously and help us support this amazing charity!!

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.
