Brain Cancer is a disease that is very personal to me.....

So for the month of May i will be doing my bit to show Grey Matters by colouring my hair Grey to support the ‘Grey for May’ campaign, to help raise awareness about this horrible and under funded form of cancer!

Brain tumours are the biggest cancer killer of children and adults under 40!

Almost 11,000 people are diagnosed each year with a primary brain tumour, including 500 children and young people – that's 30 people every day!

Over 5,000 people lose their lives to a brain tumour each year!

At least 102,000 children and adults are estimated to be living with a brain tumour in the UK currently!

Brain tumours reduce life expectancy by on average 20 years – the highest of any cancer!

Just 19% of adults survive for five years after diagnosis!

Research offers the only real hope of dramatic improvements in the management and treatment of brain tumours. Over £500m is spent on cancer research in the UK every year, yet LESS than 2% is spent on brain tumours!!

Any money raised will be donated between The Brain Tumour Charity and Brain Tumour Research.

Many thanks
