We fund long-term, sustainable research to find a cure for brain tumours

Story

Unexpectedly Paul was diagnosed with a brain tumour in August last year and our world was turned upside down. After undergoing many tests and scans the diagnosis was a grade 2 glioma, which given the situation, was the best outcome we could wish for. The tumour is not cancerous and is slow growing. The current treatment plan is to observe with regular scans . If/when the situation changes we will alter the plan accordingly. After lots of research we have discovered that there are many people in much worse situations than us. Brain tumour reasearch receives very little help from the government, which is why we want to help while we're fit and able to.  We are lucky to have a fabulous group of supportive friends , all different ages and levels of fitness. This is going to be a challenge but i like a challenge 💕

Brain tumours kill more children and adults under the age of 40 than any other cancer. Just 1% of the national spend on cancer research has been allocated to this disease. We are a leading voice calling for support and action for research into what is called the last battleground against cancer.
