Emma and her colleagues Hollie, Emma and Charlotte are teaming up to run the London Landmarks Half Marathon next March 2019.

In 2017, Emma L's mum got diagnosed with a brain tumour. Believed to be benign and currently on 'watch and wait'. 

Following an invitation to the research laboratory at Derriford Hospital this year, Emma learnt a lot about what it means to have a brain tumour and the research being put in behind it to help find a cure and kill it.  

With so little funding being received from the Government at just 1%, Emma was inspired to help raise money for the charity and assist them in making that difference.
