My good friend died in August 2015 due to an inoperable brain tumour. I want to raise money for brain tumour research in his name and to hopefully find a cure for this devestating illness. I will be taking part in the Great North Run to do my bit and am asking people for your support to reach the target. Thank you

"Brain tumours kill more children and adults under the age of 40 than any other cancer… yet just 1% of the national spend on cancer research has been allocated to this devastating disease. This is unacceptable!I am fundraising for Brain Tumour Research as they are the only national charity dedicated to funding long-term, sustainable research in the UK. Please help me fund the fight. Together we will find a cure."
