Story

Thanks for visiting our team fundraising page which has been set up to raise funds for Velindre Cancer Centre.

In March of this year (2019) a small group of us will take on an incredibly difficult challenge - attempting to traverse a 100 km route through the Arctic.

The support team has been assessed and assembled and the pulk sleds have been booked. All we need now is a bit of support from our wonderful community, and any amount you can spare would help do wonderful things for cancer sufferers throughout Wales.

As usual we're doing this in support of Velindre Cancer Hospital in Cardiff and as usual our efforts are in support of my own loss anyone who's had to struggle against the challenges set by this sneaky, cowardly disease.

Every penny you donate goes straight to the coalface battle against a disease that takes so many from us. She’d be chuffed if you’d help us with your generosity.
