We fund long-term, sustainable research to find a cure for brain tumours

Story

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.

We are fundraising for Brain Tumour Research as they are the only national charity dedicated to funding long-term, sustainable research in the UK. Together we will find a cure.

We are bringing the family business community together in a collective effort as a force for good, to get active which is good for us all personally, and to make a difference to a cause that is important to us personally.

Each and every member of the team is committed to walking, running or cycling the equivalent of 9,260 steps a day which by the time of our annual flagship conference in March 2025 we will have each achieved an incredible 1 million steps!

As Paul Andrews, Founder & CEO of Family Business United explains, "Each year we do something to make a difference and this year wanted it to be a challenge. A group of family business owners wanted to do something together and this lead to the creation of the Million Step Charity Challenge."

"I chose this charity as it is personal to me as my Mum was diagnosed with a brain tumour in the Autumn of 2021 and sadly passed away within three weeks of the diagnosis, so this is way to make a difference, raising funds for a charity that is looking to find a cure."

"The challenge gets me out and about, off my chair in the office and at the same time will make a difference too."

"We look forward to seeing the cumulative impact that this campaign has when we announce the results in March."

Every penny donated goes direct to the charity and will help to make a difference.
