In memory of Sam Poole
We are moving further, faster to help everyone affected by a brain tumour

Story

Brain tumours remain the biggest cancer killer of children and adults under the age of 40, yet they receive less than 2% of all cancer related funding.

I'm determined that my fundraising for The Brain Tumour Charity will continue in memory of my late wife Sam, who we sadly lost four years ago. This time my challenge is a three-day trek across Iceland in July.

I've been further motivated by the story of one of my childhood school friends (and old neighbour) Pete Moreton, who is himself living with the impact of the same type of tumour as that which befell Sam. You can read his inspiring story at:

Thanks all!
