Story

On Yer Bike For Brain Tumours!!!

On Saturday 23 February 2013 a group of mates will keep the pedals turning over 12 hours of indoor cycling classes at The Pilates Studio in Glossop!! So we need your help to motivate and keep us going by donating what you can to this critical charity.

 

As most of you will already know we have a tough act to follow as last year we had an unbelievable success on the first 'On yer Bike' event and raised £14,000............!! ...........

 

......do have a read below for more background...

 

The diagnosis of a Brain Tumour is devastating for all involved, patient, partners parents, siblings, friends and loved ones. Whether benign or malignant these patients and their carers live with a ticking time bomb. Brain Tumours may also affect mood, memory, personality, independence, ability to work or drive.

Some stark statistics;

More people under 40 die of a brain tumour than from any other cancer 25% of all cancers spread to the brain

Yet Brain Tumour research remains woefully underfunded and the five year survival rate remains unchanged for the past 30 years.

Please give as much as you can to help patients and their loved ones find the words they are dying to hear, “there is a cure, everything will be alright.”

Brain tumours kill more children and adults under the age of 40 than any other cancer. Just 1% of the national spend on cancer research has been allocated to this disease. We are a leading voice calling for support and action for research into what is called the last battleground against cancer.
