We undertake critical brain tumour research to improve survival rates across the World.

Story

Our lives were turned upside down in April 2024 when we found out that James had a malignant brain tumour.

During the last few months James has had four operations and intensive treatment (chemotherapy and radiotherapy) without any break. James has been incredibly brave and we are SO proud of him.

James is due to start chemotherapy treatment again in the coming weeks.

We have finally finished opening thousands of football card/sticker packs so we need to find something else to focus on! We have been discussing charity fundraising with James and he has decided he wants to make personalised bracelets and keyrings to raise money for charity. He is going to put one of his Beads of Courage on each of them.

Paul and I have chosen to donate the funds raised to research into childhood brain tumours.

If you would like a bracelet or keyring please let us know. Each one is handmade by James so it might take a little while to get it to you. We ask that you make a minimum donation of £5.

We really appreciate your kind donations and support.

James, Katie, Paul and Freddie xx
