Story

Thanks for taking the time to visit my JustGiving page.

Stephen Guild (Stevie) a loving husband, father, son, brother, friend, boss and football coach died of a brain tumour on 06/08/2012 he was only 49 years old, he fought with courage and dignity until the end. He became ill on 3 April 2011 having suffered a seizure. We received the devastating news that he had a brain tumour following a CT can on 8 May 2011. My dad was loved and respected by everyone who knew him, he loved life. His diagnosis of a GBM in May 2011 was a terrible blow to all who knew him and turned our world upside down, he was focused as ever on fighting this devastating disease and fought with so much courage and determination.

Brain Tumour Research is woefully under-funded and we are trying to do our part to raise some money and awareness. Only 0.7% of cancer research is spend researching brain tumours. Brain tumours kills. Life expectancy for people with brain tumours has not increased in 40 years. Their aim is to raise £7m per year to help fight brain tumours so please support us in this effort.

Donating through JustGiving is simple, fast and totally secure. Your details are safe with JustGiving – they’ll never sell them on or send unwanted emails. Once you donate, they’ll send your money directly to the charity and make sure Gift Aid is reclaimed on every eligible donation by a UK taxpayer. So it’s the most efficient way to donate - I raise more, whilst saving time and cutting costs for the charity.

Brain tumours kill more children and adults under the age of 40 than any other cancer. Just 1% of the national spend on cancer research has been allocated to this disease. We are a leading voice calling for support and action for research into what is called the last battleground against cancer.
