 A Pontypool market trader, who has battled testicular cancer, is to go under the needle to raise money for the Velindre Cancer Centre.
Richard Klier, 42, of Abertillery was diagnosed in December 2016 and was supported through three cycles of chemotherapy by Velindre.
He will be getting a tattoo of the centre’s logo, donated by Scott Gallear of the Cold Soul Collective Tattoo Studio in Pontypool, as part of a family fun day in the town centre on August 12.
The day will also include stalls in the town, fun and games for children, music and dance, and lots of other activities.
Richard runs Bubblicious Bathtime from Pontypool Indoor Market with his partner Lisa Taylor. He said: “I have had a huge amount of support from Velindre and this is my way of giving something back by raising money for the centre, and drawing attention to testicular cancer which many men are afraid to talk about.
“We have a fantastic day planned, with fun for all the family and a raffle with some great prizes including an Amazon Echo, tickets for a tour of the Principality Stadium, sessions at the Escape Rooms in Cardiff, champagne, meals for two, and lots more.
“It would be great to see as many people as possible coming to Pontypool on August 12 to have a great day out and to help us raise money for a really important charity.”
