Story

I am running the London Landmarks half marathon in 2024 in memory of my Aunty Joanne who we lost to a brain tumour on 14th June 2022. Unfortunately there were very few obvious warning signs leading up to her diagnosis as she fell ill very suddenly whilst away on holiday and passed within days. She was unaware that she had a brain tumour and never regained consciousness after emergency surgery. I would like to support further research and change so that other families may get a better chance than we did. 

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