Where: Wales Millennium Centre in Cardiff
Velindre Fundraising and their Patron Rhod Gilbert are putting on their latest Hoof Cancer Right Where It Hurts gig at Wales Millennium Centre.
This will be the third Hoof Cancer gig Velindre Patron Rhod has hosted. The event will raise funds for Rhod’s next Velindre trek which takes place in Morocco’s Atlas Mountains from 5 October. This will be the sixth Velindre trek Rhod has led, following on from the 2013 Kilimanjaro Trek of a Lifetime, Patagonia in 2015, Peru in 2017, Nepal in 2019 and Cuba in 2022.
The Morocco trek will be particularly poignant as it will be the first trek that Rhod has led since his cancer diagnosis in May 2022. Rhod is a true Welsh hero, and this will be a special gig for both him and his fans!
