We will once again be joined by family and friends, forming Emily’s Army, to walk the Twilight Walk 2026 in London for The Brain Tumour Charity.

Our daughter, Emily, died in August 2022 of a diffuse midline glioma. Emily was just 8 years old and had her whole future ahead of her. Her type of tumour has no cure and so much more needs to be done to help research into more effective prevention and treatment so families like ours have more hope in the future.

We are walking the Twilight Walk again this year, with family and friends, in her memory, as Emily’s Army, to help raise awareness of this devastating type of cancer. Emily was a huge Harry Potter fan so we are taking inspiration from Dumbledore’s Army for our team name. She would love that.

The Brain Tumour Charity is the world's leading brain tumour charity and the largest dedicated funder of research into brain tumours globally. Committed to saving and improving lives, we're moving further, faster to help every single person affected by a brain tumour.

We're set on finding new treatments, offering the highest level of support and driving urgent change. And we're doing it right now. Because we understand that when you, or someone you love, is diagnosed with a brain tumour a cure really can't wait.
