Cardiff & Vale Breast Centre Appeal

Cardiff & Vale Breast Centre Appeal Welcome to the Cardiff & Vale Breast Centre Appeal! This appeal is part of Cardiff & Vale Health Charity, registered charity number 1056544

The Breast Centre at University Hospital Llandough treats between 450 and 500 new breast cancer patients every year; for initial investigations, follow-up treatment and patients returning for results. At a time when patients may be very anxious they tell us it makes a huge difference to them to have a streamlined service with everything under one roof. The Breast Centre Appeal raised the money to

build the Centre, which is designed around the needs of our patients. For example, when the Centre was built, a private corridor was included so that upset patients can leave the building without walking through the busy waiting areas. The new Breast Centre houses out-patient clinics and diagnostic radiology services together, close to the ward and operating facilities. This means that fewer patients need to stay in hospital overnight. Patients can have a mammogram or ultrasound and get their results on the same day; then if further investigations are needed these can also be carried out at the Centre. Donations to the Breast Centre Appeal, part of Cardiff & Vale Health Charity and now in its sixth year, vitally supplement the NHS service by funding a complete support package for patients, including holistic training, complimentary therapy and a tailored post-surgery exercise programme. Our fundraisers, both Breast Centre staff and volunteers, are passionate about raising money to improve Breast Centre services.

A heartfelt thank you to Clare Bevan for taking on the Cardiff 10K on 7th September in support of our Breast Centre Appeal!

Despite battling a cold and braving the rain, Clare absolutely smashed the race, and her fundraising target! She doubled her goal, raising an amazing ยฃ1,188 (including Gift Aid). ๐Ÿ‘

Clare chose to support the Breast Centre Appeal because, in her own words:

โ€œThe physiotherapy and exercise prescription services funded by the charity have been an absolutely essential part of me rebuilding my life post-cancer. Please give generously so other ladies can benefit for many years to come. Diolch o galon.โ€

Weโ€™re so grateful for Clareโ€™s strength, generosity, and determination, and the money she has raised really will directly benefit other patients at the Breast Centre, University Hospital Llandough.
