Vietnam 2018

Paula Holmes is raising money for Katy Holmes Trust
In memory of KATY HOLMES
Donations cannot currently be made to this page
The Katy Holmes Trust has been set up in memory of our beautiful daughter Katy to find a paediatric brain tumour cure. Brain tumours are the BIGGEST cancer killer of children in the UK and the most poorly funded by Government with only 0.7% given towards research. We aim to fund research ourselves.

Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

I am trekking Vietnam in August 2018 in memory of my beloved daughter Katy Holmes who sadly died in 2012 after a 3 month battle with a brain tumour. We have since discovered that brain tumours are the biggest cancer killer of children and adults under 40 in the UK and that research is very poorly funded.

The Katy Holmes Trust was set up in her memory and is already funding a fantastic research programme via The Brain Tumour Charity which is 18 months into a 5 year programme. Already there has been great progress and we simply must keep going until we find that cure.

Katy had a bucket list which i am taking upon myself to complete. Vietnam was on there too along with China, Africa and Ohio, all of which have been done. Please, please will you help us to save lives by donating whatever you can to this cause. Who knows, one day it might affect you or someone you know. Thank you so very much xx
