We invest in work that helps shift outcomes — from national, transformational change to focused, practical ideas that remove barriers, test smarter ways of working, or strengthen what’s already underway.
Explore all the projects we’ve funded and supported below. We update these pages regularly to reflect progress, learning, and emerging impact.

Towards Zero Deaths from Bowel Cancer in Wales
Every year in Wales, over 900 people die from bowel cancer. This number is increasing, and so are the inequalities in care. Working with patients, clinicians and others we have set out a plan to begin moving Wales Towards Zero Deaths from Bowel Cancer.
Bowel Cancer Programme
Our Bowel Cancer Programme recognises that radical new approaches are needed to achieve a step change in outcomes across Wales. Pivotal to the aims of the programme is the permission to innovate, to test ideas and approaches.
Early Detection & Diagnosis Funding Call
Our Early Detection & Diagnosis Funding Call aimed to pump-prime the implementation of changes that could increase the proportion of cancers diagnosed at an earlier stage in Wales.
Upper GI Programme
Upper gastrointestinal cancers have some of the poorest survival outcomes in Wales. The projects we’ve funded aim to make a meaningful difference — with a focus on earlier diagnosis, less invasive technologies for diagnosis and treatment, and innovative approaches to workforce development.
Rapid Diagnosis Centres
Wales’ Rapid Diagnosis Centres are an exciting development with the potential to radically reduce time to cancer diagnosis.
Innovation Time Awards
The Innovation Time Awards supported colleagues in Hywel Dda and Betsi Cadwaladr University Health Boards to adopt practical and clinical innovations to improve cancer outcomes with immediate impact - whether in cancer services, diagnostics, treatments, enabling technologies or workforce on the ground.
