Group Run · 19 July 2025

The Brain Tumour Charity is the world’s leading brain tumour charity and the largest dedicated funder of research into brain tumours globally. Committed to saving and improving lives, we’re moving further, faster to help every single person affected by a brain tumour. A cure really can’t wait

Story

Recently me and many others lost someone very close; This person is Max who unjustly suffered a rare brain tumour at the age of 18. Words aren't enough to describe what he meant to all of us.

He loved the outdoors and always said how he wanted to do an ultra-marathon which is why I'm planning this fundraiser. I want to complete an ultra myself but also want people of all abilities to be able to come along and run with me. Which is why the route I'm planning will be relatively short so anyone can do as many laps as they can or would like to. Still feel free to come watch and support if you can’t or don’t want to run!

The reason I chose the brain tumour charity is because not only do they provide support for those suffering from it but they are dedicated to finding a cure which is very important to me. I urge you to read more about what they do at: https://www.thebraintumourcharity.org/

Information about the route, address, etc will be on this fundraising page at a later date so keep an eye out.

Thank you so much for any donation you make!
