Story
Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.
On the 29th of October 2021 I was diagnosed with a stage 4 brain tumour. Through out this last year I have underwent surgery, radiotherapy and chemotherapy to help try rid me of cancer. Without these procedures I would not be here today. To give help back to those suffering from this disease I have decided to raise money to help fund Brain Tumour research.
I am organising a walk round the Flotterstone up to Scalds law (10k’ish) on Saturday the 29th of October 2022. That is one year on from my diagnosis. This is take in the lovely views of where I was brought up and to have fun and raise money. Anyone is welcome to join in if they wish. We will be meeting at 9am to begin the walk. Afterwards we can have a drink in the pub.
My friends and I have also entered to the mens edinburgh 10k run on the 23/10/2022 also to help raise funds.
Want to join me in supporting a good cause? I'm raising money for Brain Tumour Research and your contribution will make an impact, whether you donate £5 or £500. Every little bit helps. Thank you for your support. I've included information about Brain Tumour Research below.
Brain tumours are indiscriminate; they can affect anyone at any age. What’s more, they kill more children and adults under the age of 40 than any other cancer... yet just 1% of the national spend on cancer research has been allocated to this devastating disease.
Brain Tumour Research is determined to change this.
We are building a network of experts in sustainable research at dedicated Centres of Excellence whilst influencing the Government and larger cancer charities to invest more nationally.
We are the only national charity in the UK that is dedicated to raising funds for continuous and sustainable scientific research into brain tumours and we are a leading voice calling for greater support and action for research into what scientists are calling the last battleground against cancer.
Help us fund the fight. Together we will find a cure.
