Rugby legend Jonathan Davies OBE invites you to join him in Jiffy's Cancer 50 Challenge. This cycle event will start at Velindre Cancer Centre in Cardiff and finish at South West Wales Cancer Centre in Swansea, a total of 50 miles!!

Jiffy's Cancer 50 Challenge, hosted by White Rock Events, is a 50 mile, fully supported bike ride to raise funds for specialist treatment and supportive care for cancer patients from across South Wales. All proceeds from the ride will be divided equally between Velindre Cancer Centre and the South West Wales Cancer Centre.

This is the first large-scale joint fundraiser for Velindre and the South West Wales Cancer Centre, and is an incredible opportunity to improve cancer care across the length of the M4 corridor.

The joint fundraiser will take place on Sunday, 10th October 2021, following a route from Velindre to the South West Wales Cancer Centre based in Singleton. Early sign-up participants will receive an official Cancer 50 Challenge cycling jersey.

Entry costs £50, plus riders will be expected to raise a minimum £50 sponsorship. This entry fee covers mechanical support, detailed maps, and refreshment stops along the 50-mile course.

Jonathan Davies, OBE, President of Velindre Cancer Centre says "Having been involved with fundraising for Velindre Cancer Centre for over 14 years, I am extremely passionate about cancer care in South Wales.

I'm so excited to support this brand new venture which will support cancer patients and their families across South Wales.

Fundraisers like this are so important to Velindre and the South West Wales Cancer Centre, as they allow us to provide an enormous range of services and tools that just wouldn't be possible otherwise."

We'll see you at the start line!
