I am cycling 141 miles from one coast to another over 3 days - Morecambe to Scarborough at the end of June 2023. I am also completing the 85 mile Etape Caledonia on 14th May.

I have still been cycling throughout my treatment, but this will be a big challenge for me having only finished all my treatment for a Brain Tumour in April this year.

The reason why this is so dear to me, is that in 2021, 1 month after turning 50, I went to A&E after suffering a massive headache that came out of nowhere.

24 hours later, I received the devastating news that I had a brain tumour.

I underwent brain surgery in January 2022, followed by 6 weeks of daily radiotherapy.

I am now just coming to the end of 12 months of chemotherapy.

I feel humbled that everything went well and I have still been able to work full time and continue my passion of cycling.

Through this happening to me, I have learnt so much about brain tumours. They are one of the biggest killers to under 25’s and so underfunded and the treatment has not changed in many years.

I feel so fortunate to be here and been able to do something to raise some money for the amazing brain tumour charity.

I would be so grateful if you would donate to this cause so close to my heart.

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.
