UPDATE: A message from Steve "I would like to say a big thank you to everyone for the awesome support shown to both BT Buddies and to myself. To raise £895 within 36 hours of going live is quite astonishing and I appreciate it so much as does Mrs B, it does us so much good. It just goes to prove the power of the BT Buddies family and the WFC family pulling together. Thank you xx"

If you would like one (or more!) of Steve's super yellow wristbands please email btbuddiesstevebrister@yahoo.co.uk and we'll get them to you as soon as we can!

This page has been setup for all those supporting Steve, his wife Jackie and all the family. Over the past few days the yellow wristband (left) has appeared on facebook profiles across the country (and the world!) so, on behalf of Steve and Jackie, we have setup this page where anyone wishing to purchase a wristband can make a small donation to Steve's chosen charity.

After his cancer had spread to his brain, Steve found an organisation called BT Buddies and was keen to get to speak to others going through a similar journey as him. He quickly became a moderator of their weekly online support group and helped BT Buddies enormously when he got Watford F.C. to help raise awareness of the disease.

As Steve continues his battle we hope you will join us in supporting him and all his family, not just with donations and wearing wristbands but by keeping them all in your thoughts at this difficult time.
