The power of your support
Your £300 fundraising would allow us to fund 6 hours of specialist counselling sessions.
In turn, it helps patients process their emotions, come to terms with their diagnosis, and feel empowered as they navigate their cancer pathway.
Collectively, our 2025 Cardiff Half Marathon runners could raise an incredible £45,000 for Velindre Cancer Charity. These funds help us deliver life-changing care and services to cancer patients and their families. Sign up today and help us bring hope, build strength, and drive progress.
