Eluned Morgan MS, Cabinet Secretary for Health and Social Care
During the 2023-24 financial year, Velindre University NHS Trust received £7.35m in income generated from a commercial trial led by the trust over recent years.
The trust has sought my approval to donate the funds to the Velindre University NHS Trust charity, which I have provided. This will allow the funds raised from research activities to support the provision of cancer services in coming years, in line with both the charity’s and the trust’s objectives.
The Velindre University NHS Trust charity provides support to the trust in its provision of world class research-led treatment, care and support for individuals and families affected by cancer. It promotes and supports activities which deliver quality, care and excellence in all services provided by Velindre University NHS Trust.
