Story

A message from the Managing Director

As the Managing Director of Composite Doors Cardiff Limited, I have made arrangements to partner with a charity that has the potential to save many lives in the future. I have personally been touched by the effects of brain cancer.

In 2015 my father lost his long, brave, personality changing and emotionally draining battle against the effects of brain tumours. He was first diagnosed 20+ years previous, after winning round 1 with the removal of a massive brain tumour and masses of radiotherapy.

But... the cancer returned, better equipped, in masses and more determined to succeed. It launched its final attack on my dad, and won a cruel victory.

Before he died, probably as far back as 1999, I have collected money in many ways, to donate to The Brain Tumour Charity. At my fathers funeral in December 2015, instead of flowers, we requested donations to The Brain Tumour Charity and collected several hundred pounds for them. Although I was devastated (and still am) by the loss of my father, having watched this once strong, respected and unbeatable man forget who his family were, forget who he was and lose all dignity and awareness of his surroundings, it comforted me knowing that his passing had contributed towards saving someone else's life one day. Maybe my children or grandchildren - maybe yours.

A cure may not yet be known, but every penny is "a step closer" to saving our children, grandchildren, great grandchildren or even other close members of our family & friends etc. A cure could be found tomorrow, and with donations that becomes more likely as each day passes. 

So why do I tell you all of this? I have contacted The Brain Tumour Charity and signed a partnership deal with them to collect donations on their behalf via voluntary donations from our customers.

My hope is that, over time, we can help to raise important funds to help turn that "1 step closer" into 2 steps closer towards finding a cure. 

I appreciate you reading this and, to those of you about to donate, I thank you in advance.
