Velindre Cancer Centre is the largest non - surgical cancer Hospital in Wales and has been providing support and care to cancer patients for nearly 60 years. We are the premier provider of radiotherapy and other specialised anti - cancer treatments in Wales. Radiotherapy is one of the key treatments for cancer and contributes to cures for approximately 40% of patients, and recent advances at Velindre means that it can be delivered with remarkable precision. Someone in the UK is diagnosed with cancer every 2 minutes, however survival rates have doubled in the last 40 years. We believe that every hour, every day, and every month that someone survives cancer is a victory. Every event, every function no matter how small, will be a celebration because anything that helps defy cancer will contribute towards our aim of Victory over Cancer. We are very lucky to have been nominated as the M&S charity of the Year for Llanishen and are it's a pleasure to be part of this remarkable scheme. More people in Wales are surviving cancer because of better treatments and earlier detection. Every contribution makes a difference – Patient Centred Care is at the heart of everything we do, and money raised is used to support projects over and above those provided by the NHS. Utilising the skills, experience and expertise of staff at Velindre, donations will be spent to ensure the best possible support to patients and their families dealing with cancer. It allows us to fund ground breaking research, specialist equipment and staff development so that Velindre staff has access to the most up to date training an techniques. If you would like any support to help organise an event, or would like to take part in a Velindre activity, please don’t hesitate to contact us by phone or email, or visit our website.
