Story

Hi,

All together we are fundraising for Brain Tumour research, this horrible disease has affected some of the team personally but all together as one we are looking to raise funds for this brilliant charity!

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.

Rory’s fundraising Story ‘I am fundraising for Brain tumour research in memory of my Dad who we lost last June to a horrific brain tumour. He bravely fought this disease for 5 years. In and out of multiple hospitals, homes and never giving in to this awful disease, he was 58 when he sadly passed leaving a huge hole in our family which will never be filled. We both ran the Manchester 10k together (see attached pic) before his illness and he would have told me to go for it and never give in. I’m hoping to raise as much money and possible for brain tumour research as I know it’s such an under funded killer and I would like to do my best to change this fact’

Please give what you can and thanks to anyone who donates!
