I don’t even walk to the shop just down the road but when I was told about this event I was clearly overcome with stupidity and came to the conclusion that I’ve got to do it. 

When you are told that someone that you love has a brain tumour your heart sinks and your head goes into panic mode before going totally numb, with a diagnosis five years ago for my mother in law who sadly lost her life to her tumour just six months ago and a recent diagnosis for another family member who’s treatment and monitoring is ongoing, I personally have experienced how this diagnosis can be so life changing for everyone involved, so this is a cause that is very close to my heart.
