Story

Wednesday 6th October marks 1 year since we lost our beautiful Cathy to a brain tumour, having lost our lovely dad and papa Michael 10 years earlier to the same disease. To mark Cathy's anniversary our family are taking on the 20 for 20 challenge to raise money for Brain Tumour Research, with all of us challenging ourselves to do something out of our comfort zones every day for 20 days, between 20th September and 20th December.

Brain cancer is one of the biggest cancer killers in the UK with just 12% of adults surviving for five years after diagnosis, yet it receives just 1% of the money spent on cancer research in the UK. Brain Tumour Research has joined forces with 19 other cancer charities across the UK to create a 20-day fundraising challenge designed to challenge yourself and your family and friends in fun ways to raise money to help fund research into this devastating disease.

We have chosen to take on this challenge as it is something we can do together as a family - it is suitable for all ages and you can take on any challenge you want! We would appreciate any support anyone can give by getting involved or by donating below.

Thank you for your support,
