Liam's fundraiser for Velindre Cancer Centre

Liam Ballard is raising money for Velindre Cancer Centre

Carten Bike Ride · 10 May 2025

Story

My mum is currently undergoing her own battle with a very rare form of cancer, and I am incredibly grateful for the unwavering support that Velindre Cancer Centre has provided her every step of the way. They have also supported loved ones in the past who have sadly lost their battle.

In light of this, I have decided to take on the challenge of riding 107 miles from Cardiff to Tenby as part of the Carten Bike Ride on May 10, 2025. This personal cycling event is not just a test of endurance for me; it is an opportunity to raise funds for a fantastic charity that helps so many people in need.

Velindre Cancer Centre, known as the Hospital of Hope, has been providing specialist treatment and supportive care to cancer patients and their families for over 65 years. The money raised will help fund groundbreaking research and clinical trials, cutting-edge treatments, specialist nurses, support services, therapies, equipment, and so much more that goes beyond what is provided by the NHS. Your generous donation will truly make a significant impact on patients and their families.

I kindly ask you to consider supporting my fundraising goal of £500. Your contribution will allow Velindre to continue providing hope for the future.
