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

Story

My beloved Mother sadly lost her battle on 1st March 2017. Following a short diagnosis of a Brain Tumour (Glioblastoma Multiforme). This is the most aggressive form of Brain Cancer.

Following on from my 13,500ft Skydive in 2017, it's time for another challenge. With the help of gift aid, we raised £4721.25. Collectively with the help of my sisters fundraising combined we have raised just over £6400.

I wanted to choose something that really pushed my body and my mind to it's limit. What better way than to take on the worlds highest freestanding mountain. I will be self funding this trip, this meaning all proceeds go to Brain Tumour Research.

Brain tumours 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. This is unacceptable!I am fundraising for Brain Tumour Research as they are the only national charity dedicated to funding long-term, sustainable research in the UK. Please help me fund the fight. Together we will find a cure.
