Thomas Carroll Celebrates Decade-Long Partnership with Tŷ Hafan
Thomas Carroll, independent insurance, risk, wealth management and insurtech company, is celebrating a 10-year partnership with children's hospice charity Tŷ Hafan, raising £122,150.33 in vital funds since the relationship began.
To mark this milestone, Thomas Carroll is the headline sponsor of Tŷ Hafan's Welsh Three Peaks Challenge 2025, taking place on Saturday, 7 June.
This single-day adventure spans over 20 miles and involves a total ascent of 9,397 feet, conquering the three highest peaks in Wales – Yr Wyddfa (Snowdon), Cadair Idris, and Pen y Fan, which will be a true test of endurance, team spirit, and determination.
Two dedicated teams from Thomas Carroll will be taking on the challenge for a second year running, with additional colleagues providing vital on-the-ground support. The firm hopes to raise significant funds for Tŷ Hafan, which has been providing life-changing care and support to children with life-shortening conditions and their families across Wales since 1999.
Natalie Sankala, Operations Director at Thomas Carroll, said:
'This challenge is another opportunity for us to step up and give back to a charity that means so much to us.
'This is more than just a hike. It's about pushing ourselves to support a cause that's close to our hearts. Every pound raised goes directly to Tŷ Hafan, helping them continue to provide comfort, care and precious moments to families who need it most. I have volunteered to part in this year's challenge, and look forward to not only raising money for Tŷ Hafan but to spend time with a lovely group of people, whilst taking in the amazing Welsh landscape'.
Kelly Dibble, Corporate Fundraising Manager at Tŷ Hafan, said:
'When a child's life will be short, Tŷ Hafan will walk alongside their family every step of the way – through life, death and beyond. We were delighted when Thomas Carroll announced that they would support our flagship Welsh Three Peaks event by being the lead sponsor.
'Thomas Carroll's fantastic fundraising and long-term partnership has contributed hugely in our ambition to reach every family that needs us. The team are truly incredible, and we are extremely grateful to them for their ongoing support and enthusiasm.
'No parent ever imagines that their child's life will be short. Sadly, this is the reality facing thousands of families in Wales. We can't stop this happening, but together we can make sure that no one in Wales lives their child's short life alone.'
Members of the public are also invited to join the challenge. Registration is £25 per team, with a fundraising target of £800.

Phil Parkinson bemoans ‘game changing' decision as Southampton deny Wrexham
Josh Windass put Wrexham ahead from the penalty spot in their Championship opener after Kieffer Moore was blatantly pushed over when through on goal in the 22nd minute. But Edwards was only booked and Saints took advantage of keeping 11 players on the field as substitute Ryan Manning swept home a brilliant 25-yard free-kick in the 90th minute. Saints skipper Jack Stephens added to Wrexham's agony in the sixth minute of stoppage time by firing home off the crossbar. 'He was clean through and he gets pushed down for the penalty,' Parkinson said after Wrexham's first game in the second tier of English football for 43 years. 'I've spoken to the ref and said, 'Look, my interpretation of that rule is if it's an intentional push it's a straight red'. 'I saw it from the touchline and the footage again at half-time. I can't see how he's not got that right because it's a game-changing moment as they're down to 10 men. 'I know the ref feels there's a covering defender. But if you're about to strike the ball on goal where he was on the pitch, and the player intentionally pushes you to the ground, the ref's got to make that call right.' After winning three successive promotions to move from the National League to the Championship in record-breaking time, the Welsh club owned by Hollywood actors Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney have invested heavily this summer. Six of their eight summer signings started and Wrexham had chances through Lewis O'Brien and Ryan Hardie to extend their lead, while Windass struck the woodwork from 25 yards before opening the scoring. Parkinson said: 'I think when we reflect, it's a very proud day for the club playing at this level and there was a lot of positives for us. 'The new lads came in and have done really well but the existing players as well, I thought they were really good. 'That gives us great heart for the season ahead.' Wales striker Moore, signed from Sheffield United at the start of the week, will be assessed after being forced off after 54 minutes, with Parkinson identifying the injury as 'ankle ligaments'. For Saints boss Will Still – the youngest manager in the Championship at 32 – it was a winning start in English football after working in Belgium and France. Still said: 'It was crazy. We created some really big opportunities in the first half and in the second half we took control. 'We said everyone's important and got to play a role. The subs have done that and shown how strong our squad is. 'Good to show a bit of grit and determination. To bring the energy and place alive which probably helped us bundle the ball over the line is good.'
