The crucial work of a children’s hospice charity has been praised by Wrexham’s Member of the Senedd. Lesley Griffiths MS recently spent a morning visiting her local Hope House Tŷ Gobaith charity shop. The store on Island Green, along with others across the region, generate funds for Hope House and Tŷ Gobaith children’s hospices, which need to raise £7.
5 million a year. The charity aims to ensure every child with a life-threatening condition and their family get the help and support they need. Lesley Griffiths MS met with the local store management team and the volunteers who donate their time to help the daily running of the shop.
Commenting after her visit, Ms Griffiths said: “It was a pleasure meeting the volunteers and staff at Wrexham’s Tŷ Gobaith store and to discover more about their work and some of the challenges they face. “The charity has seven shops across Mid and North Wales. In addition to helping raise vital funds and awareness, the shops allow the hospices to remain connected to the communities they serve.
“No one should face the death of their child alone so the charity’s work is crucial.” During her visit, Lesley Griffiths MS and staff from the charity discussed a range of issues. Wrexham’s shop relocated to Island Green Shopping Centre in January 2023 where people can easily drop off their pre-loved donations of homeware and fashion and shop second hand to support both the charity and the environment.
