Story

Hi, I'm Kev Green, I'm just a normal guy whose ended up having a brain tumour. I quickly learnt that there was a dire need to raise awareness of this potentially life threatening condition for it was two years before I was even told I had one even though Doctors knew.  

My headaches weren't imaginary! Anyway, I decided that I for one was not going to lay down and wait. Brain tumours are like waiting for a bus . You can wait forever for something that doesn't turn up or you get run down in a dramatic fashion  

Instead I decided to be pro-active and both challenge myself short term through a swim, and long term through my online legacy which takes advantage of my passion for watches. I've decide to create an awareness group of like minded watch enthusiasts and then some.  Finally when the time does come, the intention will be to do an auction of my collection with the proceeds going to research.

So, if it's money you wish to donate, please do it here. If it's a watch for the collection then you can contact me through the group. Anyway, enough of me. Please read some words about the Brain Tumour Research charity I'm supporting below.

The Brain Tumour Charity is at the forefront of the fight to defeat brain tumours, making a difference every day to the lives of people with a brain tumour and their families. We fund pioneering research to increase survival, raise awareness of the symptoms and effects of brain tumours and provide support for everyone affected to improve quality of life. We are commeitted to having the biggest possible impact for every person affected by a brain tumour, and to defending the most amazing part of the human body.

Let's not take the stance, it won't happen to me. Support us and the sufferers. Every penny counts and who knows, yours could save many.
