Next year me and my sister Alice are running the Edinburgh Half Marathon to raise money for Brain Tumour Research. Our Grandad Mick was diagnosed with a stage 4 brain tumour last summer and sadly recently passed away. We’re hoping to raise money & awareness for the disease.

One in three people in the UK knows someone affected by a brain tumour. This disease is indiscriminate; it can affect anyone at any age. 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 since records began in 2002.

Brain Tumour Research is determined to change this. It is the only national charity focused on finding a cure for all types of brain tumours. Help fund the fight. Together we will find a cure.
