My story with The Brain Tumour charity started when my my dad was diagnosed and unfortunately passed away with a brain tumour 4 years ago. It is such a horrible disease and so many people suffer from the same diagnosis.

So many people have met my dad and know about what an incredible gentleman, friend, dad, husband, brother and son he was to so many! Taken far too soon.

 I ran a few years ago in the Sussex half and was supported incredibly by so many people. I have always wanted to step up and do a marathon and wanted to support this charity again in the Brighton full marathon on April 10th (which falls on what would have been his birthday which will be an added incentive for me).

Any support would be amazing and will help push me on on the day to get to the finish line!
