John Gledson is raising money for Brain Tumour UK
“John Gledson's fundraising”

on 3 June 2010

Donations cannot currently be made to this page
Brain Tumour UK has merged with The Brain Tumour Charity to become the UK's largest dedicated brain tumour charity. We fund research and offer support and information to those affected whilst raising awareness and influencing policy.

Story

We are raising money on behalf of my mother, Maureen Gledson, who has been brutally struck down with an aggressive brain tumour. Ten years ago, Maureen bravely overcame a massive operation to remove a large benign tumour. Sadly several months ago she was diagnosed as having another growth which has proved to be malignant and her decline has been rapid.

Sadly my mother, Maureen, passed away on June 10th, peacefully in St. Yrieix la Perch hospital in France. She is greatly missed having touched so many lives.

We are raising money for Brain Tumour UK who provide practical and emotional support to brain tumour patients and their families and also increase awareness and knowledge of brain tumours and research into the disease.

Team Pirate Badgers (John and Tony Gledson plus supporting crew) will be driving from Plymouth to Timbuktu to raise money for this worthwhile charity so please help us achieve our target and make a difference.

Thank You
