Story
With 1 in 2 of us developing cancer in our lifetime, Cancer charities need our support now more than ever.
Velindre's ambition for the future is to enhance the lives of cancer patients, carers, and families in Wales by funding innovative projects and services that extend beyond NHS provisions. Together, we stand with Velindre Cancer Service in delivering exceptional cancer services to over 1.7 million people across South East Wales and beyond.
One in two of us will get cancer, which means it’s likely we’ve all been affected by cancer in one way or another, and we know the heartache a diagnosis can bring. To change cancer, the answer lies in research, and here at Cancer Research Wales, we live and breathe research – it’s in our DNA. By raising money for us, you can help create hope for today’s cancer patients, and transform outcomes for the patients of tomorrow.
Together, we will achieve Victory Over Cancer.
My wife Lynda Meyrick was diagnosed with bowel cancer in Nov 2025 and passed away before she could benefit from the treatment she had started to receive. Nonetheless we firmly believe that Lynda would have wanted to help those who come after her to receive treatment that will help them.
Please give what you can to help create a fitting legacy for Lynda.
