We are delighted to announce we will be supporting and fundraising throughout this year for our chosen charity Ty Hafan.

Ty Hafan is one of the UK’s leading paediatric palliative care charities and offers care to children and support for their families, throughout Wales. They offer comfort, care and support to life-limited children, young people and their families in the hospice, in the community and in their home so they can make the most of the time they have left together. They allow parents and carers to relax and recharge their batteries and make sure the needs of brothers and sisters are never forgotten.

The money we raise this year will go towards raising money to paying for Ty Hafan to open for a day!

We will be carrying out a variety of events throughout the year, so please keep your eyes peeled;

• Golf Day

• Vale of Glamorgan Show Raffle

In aid of the NHS David Lakin, our Residential Sales and Lettings Manager and 47 friends completed a run of 500 kilometres in 48 hours! They individually ran in one hour time slots for a continuous 48 hour period between 6pm on Friday 1st May 2020 and 6pm on Sunday 3rd May 2020. (Yes, through the night). This was all completed adhering to social distancing guidelines and was tracked using Strava to get over 500km. The money raised was all in aid of the sterling work that the NHS workers have done for us during the Covid – 19 pandemic. Thank you to everyone who supported the fundraiser.

Brinsons & Birt are proud to be one of the main sponsors annually for the Cowbridge 10k in aid of Cancer Research UK. Organised by our Residential Consultant’s wife, our own Ann Birt, we always pledge to this fantastic day for the local community. Our staff endeavour to run wherever possible, whether it be the 5k or 10k. For full details please visit www.cowbridge10k.co.uk.

Many of our staff including our Director, Richard, have grown up and come through Maendy Young Farmers Club, as a result we really aim to give back and sponsor them as a Club (Maendy YFC) and County (Glamorgan YFC) wherever we can. Richard in his spare time writes and directs the annual Pantomime/drama, which has seen great success over the years for Maendy YFC.  Rob is currently Chairman of Maendy YFC.
