The new Velindre Cancer Centre project has reached a major milestone with the Trust gaining access to the first areas of our new home
On Wednesday 16 September 2026, Cardiff Cancer Research Partnership (CCRP) hosted its first annual conference since it's official launch in 2025, bringing together researchers, clinicians, students and partners from across the cancer research community for a day of collaboration, knowledge sharing and networking.
This World Cancer Research Day, we are shining a spotlight on the incredible research taking place across Velindre and celebrating the patients, researchers and staff who are helping to shape the future of cancer care.
The exhibition in Cardiff has been created in partnership with the Arts in Health programme to explore the special people, places, and moments that have shaped Velindre over the decades. It forms part of the anniversary campaign, Proud of our past, excited for our future.
The milestone reflects Velindre Cancer Service's ongoing commitment to delivering world-class cancer care closer to home, ensuring more patients can access timely treatment in their local communities while benefiting from the highest standards of specialist care.

It is with deep sadness that we share the news of the passing of Professor Tom Crosby OBE, a much-loved colleague and highly respected Consultant Clinical Oncologist at Velindre Cancer Service
