Gethin and Aled Williams - Children's ward, Glangwili Hospital
Name: Gethin Williams and Aled Williams
Department: Chief Executives and Corporate Services
Charity: Children’s Ward, Glangwili hospital
What: Newport Marathon
When: October 24, 2021
Why: We wanted to raise money for the Children’s Ward at Glangwili Hospital as we have always received great compassion when we have needed to visit and knowing how hard times have been during Covid, we wanted to give something back.
Liz Howells - Twins Trust
Name: Liz Howells
Department: Communities
Charity: Twins Trust
What: I am part of a volunteer team who staff a listening line for parents of twins and multiples (triplets, quads) for those times when they need someone to listen. Twins Trust also provide a range of services to parents/grandparents and carers as well as research to improve maternity care and raise awareness of twin to twin transfusion syndrome.
Why: My twins were born 7 weeks early due to undiagnosed Twin to Twin Tranfusion syndrome and are thankfully healthy happy six year olds but the support of Twins Trust has been very important to me
