    Story

    As many of you know in February 2016 I was diagnosed with a brain tumour, which I had removed in September. I was (and still am) so grateful for the support, encouragement and kindness shown by Kat and Mark Grimes who founded the Wight Brainy Bunch after Mark had been diagnosed with a brain tumour and there had been little support for them on the Island. This charity is very close to my heart and the money that they raise is split 3 ways:

    Wight Brainy Bunch - to support families on the Isle of Wight affected by brain tumours

    Smile4Wessex - (the Wessex Neurological Centre where I had my surgery) who provide acute and specialist care to a population of approximately 3 million people from the Isle of Wight and the South Coast; not only for brain tumours but conditions such as stroke, brain haemorrhage, motor neurone disease and dementia

    The Brain Tumour Charity to fund much needed research, aid early diagnosis and improve care and quality of life for all those living with a brain tumour.

    I must be bonkers doing this but I've signed up to do a tandem skydive to raise funds and give something back for all the care and support I've been lucky enough to have had. I'm not a lover of heights and get vertigo so not entirely sure this is my finest hour but hey ho! it ticks one off the bucket list and is for an excellent cause.

    I'd love to reach my target and anything you can do to help me along the way would be most gratefully received - thank you for reading my story xxx

    What is crowdfunding?

    Crowdfunding is a new type of fundraising where you can raise funds for your own personal cause, even if you're not a registered charity.

    The page owner is responsible for the distribution of funds raised.

    Great people make things happen

    Do you know anyone in need or maybe want to help a local community cause?

    Create you own page and donʼt let that cause go unfunded!
