My story

Snow is causing havoc with my training

In a complete moment of madness I decided to DO the Silverstone Half Marathon...... The Charity I have decided to support is Hammerout, this Charity does amazing work to support  people who have been diagnosed with Brain Tumours. My youngest brother David, aged 39 collapsed a little over a year ago, and after a scan was rushed from Cheltenham Hospital to Frenchay Hospital Bristol for emergency operation on a brain tumour. After 13 hours of surgery and months of gruelling Chemotherapy, we are pleased to say he has a clean bill of health. During this time this Charity helped him and his family cope with what they all had to deal with. It is a very small Charity based in Bristol. So here goes folks..... Firstly wish me luck, and secondly a small donation would very much be appreciated.....

Hammer Out

Hammer Out

Charity Registration No. 1102750

Hammer Out is a registered charity that supports people with brain tumours and their families. Established in 2002, we are based in Thornbury, near Bristol and now have a committed team working towards raising awareness of brain tumours and the devastating effects that they have on both patients and those who love them. As well as offering a personalised support package, agreed with patients and their families, we also raise money to fund vital research into this incurable form of cancer. We aim to support children and adults across the South West region who are affected by brain tumours. To date, we have raised over £400,000 and currently support 80 families across the region.
