How your support makes a difference
Fund the research that matters to you
When you sign up to Shine Night Walk you can pick which research area you want to support, from bowel cancer to children’s cancers or simply where the need is greatest.
Over the last 40 years our work has helped double breast cancer survival, supported the development of radiotherapy and played a role in developing 8 of the world’s top 10 cancer drugs.
Nearly 1 in 2 of us will get cancer in our lifetime*, but your fundraising can make a difference.
How fundraising helps Cardiff
Cancer Research UK spent over £4 million in 2022/23 in South and Mid Wales.
By bringing together the best minds from Cardiff University, Cardiff & Vale University Health Board and Velindre University NHS Trust, we’re determined to make a difference for people with cancer in Wales and beyond. Our scientists in Cardiff are experts in studying the inner workings of cancer cells, as well as genetics, early detection and prevention. They have a particular focus on a range of cancer types, including leukaemia and bowel, breast and prostate cancers.
Research happening right now in Wales includes:
- Personalising treatment for myeloma.
- Working with other charities to help people stop smoking and reduce health inequalities.
- We’re finding new ways to treat prostate cancer.
We're with you every step of the way
Fundraising support
We’re here to help you kickstart your fundraising and smash your target. We recommend a fundraising goal of £150, but no matter how much you raise, your fundraising powers our progress.
Training support
Shine Night Walk isn’t about being the first across the finish line, but it’s important to be prepared. Whether you’re planning to power walk, stride or stroll, find out how long each distance will take and get your training plan.
Community support
Shine Night Walk is about all of us coming together to beat cancer. But you don’t need to wait until the walk! After signing up you’ll receive a link to join the official Shine Night Walk Facebook group, where you can share support, fundraising ideas and training tips with your fellow walkers.
