“During my recovery walking has been my saviour! Getting out in the fresh air, having time to think and clear my mind , as well as getting fit, has made me feel amazing!” – Sarah, Velindre patient.
Getting out for some light exercise is often a crucial part of recovery for many of our patients. Let’s walk together to support Velindre and bring hope to those who need it most.

The power of your support
Your fundraising will allow us to continue funding our family room and a relatives’ room on-site at Velindre.
The relatives’ room is an essential space for families to stay with their relatives who are being cared for at the centre. With a small kitchen and sofa bed, the room gives families somewhere quiet and comfortable to rest while still being near their loved ones.
Filled with toys, video games and comfy seats, the room gives families the chance to step away from busy clinical environments and spend quality time together in a space that feels friendly, comfortable and calm. Without your support, these spaces wouldn’t exist at Velindre.
