The power of your support
Your incredible £4,000 fundraising effort will help us advance groundbreaking clinical trials like FAKTION
In 2025, this life-changing treatment will be introduced in UK clinics, including Velindre, offering new hope to those facing incurable breast cancer. With the potential to double survival times, FAKTION is transforming the future of care and improving the lives of millions of women worldwide.
