    IIRC, he donated 500K each to a hospital in Cardiff and Madrid.

    There was a hamper appeal in Swansea back in Christmas 2020 to help those struggling and he paid for 300 of them at a cost of £15,000 aka 7 hours of his weekly wage after tax.

    Which is the equivalent of me donating about £40

    He has been extremely generous with his time and money for many years when spending time at the children's hospital at the Heath. At his request, it was kept off the radar, he's a very good human being 👍

    I would say the good ones are the ones who do it because they want to and not the publicity.

    He "gave" it from the public purse, nothing to bother him at all.

    His mother is involved with fundraising for Velindre, and he's been doing things behind the scenes for quite some time without seeking any publicity. Top bloke is our Gareth

    I think the op was at a pub quiz where the question has come up “which Welsh celebrity does the most for charity”
    I can’t figure out another reason

    His family is lovely, he grew up in the same street as Velindra and I think his Mother and father still live there, or if not did until quite recently?
