On Saturday 5th October 2024 we marked a very special occasion as we celebrated the 16th year of Bosom Pals’ unwavering support for cancer patients and their families. Hosted by CRT Together, the concert was a heartfelt tribute to the incredible work that Bosom Pals has carried out throughout the years, providing crucial support to those navigating their cancer journey and beyond. The event also served to raise essential funds to ensure that this wonderful group can continue its vital work within the community.


Bosom Pals, known for their compassionate care and support, is now further empowered through the backing of CRT Together, along with their patrons including Rhondda Cynon Taff Council, community councils, and Interlink. This partnership ensures that Bosom Pals can carry on its mission to provide strength, hope, and love to those in need.

As Bosom Pals proudly states, “You don’t know how strong you are until being strong is the only choice you have.” At CRT Together, we share this belief and are committed to ensuring that nobody faces a cancer diagnosis alone. Together, we will bring hope, care, and meaningful conversations to the lives of many.

 

Tonight’s event was more than just a celebration of past achievements; it was the beginning of a beautiful partnership between Bosom Pals and CRT Together. This collaboration is set to expand the reach and impact of both organisations, bringing even more hope and support to the community.
