Winter Nuts Challenge · 7 March 2020

Cavernoma Alliance UK (CAUK) supports people affected by cavernoma. A cavernoma is a common but often unheard of condition caused by a cluster of abnormal blood vessels in the brain or spine. Our mission is to improve the quality of life for those affected through education, support and research.

Story

You may already know, but last summer my girlfriend Lucy was diagnosed with a brain tumour the day we were heading off for a holiday to the beautiful Scottish  island of Gigha.

After a week of thinking the worst, Lucy had her brain operation to remove the clementine sized tumour and it was sent off for biopsy. The result came back that it was a cavernoma a rare, benign blood vessel tumour. 

Needless to say Lucy, her friends, family and I feel very grateful that her tumour was both operable and benign! 

Lucy is recovering remarkably quickly but others are not so lucky, this charity helps provide support and information to those that suffer with cavernomas that aren’t lucky enough to have them operated on, but also provide post surgery support. 

Any donation would be really appreciated as this run is going to be very cold and long!
