Story

In 2022 deverstation hit our family when my niece Cherri-leigh was diagnosed with an inoperable brain tumour at age 10. 

As a family we pray everyday for a breakthrough in research. The Brain Tumour Charity is the world's leading brain tumour charity and the largest dedicated funder of research into brain tumours globally. They are Committed to saving and improving lives, they are moving further & faster to help every single person affected by a brain tumour. Set on finding new treatments, offering the highest level of support and driving urgent change and doing it right now. Because they understand that when you, or someone you love, is diagnosed with a brain tumour a cure really can't wait.

This September I will be running the Great North Run the largest half marathon. With a little help from my friends & a target of £1000 I too hope to help this amazing charity keep doing what they do best. 

We live in hope that our miracle is just a breakthrough away.

Thank you!
