Story

I’m taking part in the Yorkshire Marathon (my first ever marathon) on 15th October to raise as many funds as possible for the Brain Tumour Research charity 🧠. This charity is very close to my heart due to my Auntie Lynda and my friend Cain both being diagnosed with brain tumours this year. Donations of any amount would be massively appreciated, as this charity is very underfunded ❤️.

I’m also part of Cain’s Fighting Force Team on Just Giving with many other events going ahead - collectively we are hoping to raise as many funds as we can! You can read more about Cain’s story on his Fighting Force page which is linked to this page above.

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.

Brain Tumour Research 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.

Thank you ❤️🤍
