Cancer Awareness Week takes place during the week beginning 31 January 2022 and to mark this important event, the staff and students of Cowbridge Comprehensive School are encouraged to engage in various fundraising activities. From 6am on Friday, 4 February to 6am on Saturday, 5 February, staff will be engaging in various physical activities to raise money for a vital charity - Velindre Cancer Centre. Students who are undertaking their own fundraising activities, whether physical, creative or culinary, are encouraged to donate their sponsorship money through this page. Upon donating, contributors will be able to share their own story; reasons for donating; and, what they have done to raise money.
Velindre is recognised as The Hospital Of Hope, and this is made possible because of the fantastic and committed support of donors and fundraisers. Fundraising efforts and donations help Velindre to continue to be the leading provider of radiotherapy and other specialised anti-cancer treatments in Wales. It allows them to fund projects which improve the experience and outcomes of patients receiving care and support at the centre.
With your support, they are able to offer better quality of care through complex treatment pathways; earlier access to cutting edge treatments; research into new treatments; the purchase of specialist equipment; the funding of invaluable support services and resources - along with ensuring their staff have access to the most up to date training and techniques available.
Raising money for Velindre has never been more important than it is now. Please support the staff and students of CCS in their fundraising efforts by donating whatever you can. Thank you!
