2021 was a turbulent year for us all, we smashed our joint target and generated over £115,000 for the Giles Trust. In 2022 we'll have a final push to Colins anniversary in Feburary.

Background: In early 2020 we lost a great father, son, husband, brother, colleague, and friend in Colin Broomfield aged 52 to a Glioblastoma brain tumour. Despite Colin receiving fantastic treatment and fighting extremely hard, there’s still a long way to go in advancing the treatment of this disease and raising awareness.

Some key facts

Brain Tumours are the biggest cancer killer of Children and adults under the age of 40.

11,000 people are diagnosed with Primary Brain Tumours each year in the UK.

Less than 20% of those diagnosed will live longer than 5 years.

Unlike most other cancers the incidence of brain cancer is rising – its increased by 53% since 1970.

A team of us have undertaken fund raising activities in Colin’s name, all to generate funds for The Giles Trust - a vital fund for brain tumour research and treatment at the Queen Elizabeth Hospital Birmingham. Founded and supported by Stine Giles and England cricketer Ashley Giles.

#TeamCB will celebrate Colin’s life. The charter of the fund is to have fun, generate awareness and develop a funding vessel that can help to develop research and analysis into brain tumour control and ultimately eradication.

Love #TeamCB
