The Wish Fund is an appeal run by Hywel Dda Health Charities, the official charity of Hywel Dda University Health Board. The appeal gives children and young people with life-limiting and life-threatening conditions and their families the opportunity to make magical moments which can be remembered forever.
The tractor run took place on 17th December 2023 across the Gwendraeth valley.
Nigel Davies and Anwen Davies, organisers of the event, said: “We had an excellent day, so many came to support us, it was overwhelming. We had great fun and seeing all the children’s faces was very rewarding.”
Rachel Brown, Paediatric Palliative Care Play Specialist, said “A big well done to Anwen, Nigel and team on a successful tractor run. Thank you so much for choosing to support the Wish Fund and raising a fantastic amount. The funds will help us to continue giving the families we support the opportunity to make magical memories together.”
Nicola Llewellyn, Head of Hywel Dda Health Charities, the official charity of Hywel Dda University Health Board, said: “The support of our local communities enables us to provide services over and above what the NHS can provide in the three counties of Hywel Dda and we are extremely grateful for every donation we receive.”
