Until 2 years ago, I was completely ignorant of how devastating sudden brain illness is to a patient and their family and friends . It can effect anyone at any age, with severe consequences.

I am dedicating this event in the memory of my late mother Mrs Bedor Hana Balaya , who was struck down by a sudden unexpected illness and was treated at the RVI hospital Newcastle , UK by a dedicated brain specialist team. The Charity I would like to raise money for, will help buy modern special equipment required to detect the earliest signs of impending brain dysfunction, and help improves the lives of those affected.
