Story

This year as well as cycling in memory of my dear friend Ian Meek and continuing to raise funds for the Ian Meek Studentship, we will be cycling for two of my colleagues, Karon O'Callaghan (Field Sales Manager DWH Bristol) & Tim McDermott (Regional Buyer Barratt Homes Leeds) who's children, both called Oliver, have been affected by this terrible disease.

Oliver O'Callaghan was diagnosed with a CPP Brain tumour in 2009 following the effects of obstructive hydrocephalus. Following successful resection of the tumour and relief of the hydrocephalus by a shunt.

Oliver now enjoys a normal lifestyle of a 11-year old boy. This year he went skiing for the first time and plays in the scrum for a local rugby team.

He has an annual MRI scan at the Frenchay Barbara Russell children's ward to ensure that there is no reoccurence of the tumour.

13th/14th July 2013 - Bristol to Leeds 220 miles
