Cyw helps brighten up children's centre in Carmarthen




S4C has launched a national campaign to inject some of Cyw’s colourful world into children’s wards in hospitals across Wales.
Carmarthen’s Glangwili Hospital became the second hospital to have the Cyw treatment as Ward Cilgerran, the children’s ward, was decorated with pictures of Cyw and friends this week.
The campaign started last December as pictures of characters from Cyw, S4C’s children’s service were put up on walls in Dewi Ward; the children’s ward at Ysbyty Gwynedd in Bangor.
Other wards in hospitals across Wales will be decorated in a similar way over the coming months.
Director of Communications, Marketing and Partnerships at S4C, Garffild Lloyd Lewis hopes that the campaign will help lift children’s spirits when receiving treatment in Wales’s hospitals.
“We hope that this new campaign will be a small contribution to the efforts made to ensure that time spent in hospitals isn’t too uncomfortable for children in Wales. We know that staff in wards across the country are working tirelessly to lift the children’s spirits everyday as they receive their treatment, and if the colourful fun of Cyw’s world helps at all then this campaign will have been a success.”
Enfys Williams, Welsh Language Officer at Hywel Dda University Health Board, said: "We are delighted that Cyw is helping us not only to brighten up our childrens centre but also by doing so helping to promote the Welsh language and a bilingual service within the University Health Board."
