My family and I will be walking a 10k in honour of Paul Coogan (07/06/67- 15/02/24), a much loved husband, dad, son, brother, uncle and friend. After an 18 month battle, and the first tumour being stabilised, this deadly cancer came back and took him in just 4 weeks. The number of people with brain tumours has increased significantly, but despite this there is a lack of research into them. Any support is greatly appreciated.

People participating: Wife- Catherine. Daughters- Mollie, Ruby and Erin. Sisters- Debra and Linda. Brother in laws- Phill and Adam. Sister in laws- Susan and Helen. Best friend- Paul

-Over 12,000 people are diagnosed each year with a primary brain tumour, including 500 children and young people – that’s 33 people every day

-Just 12% of adults survive for five years after diagnosis

-Over £700m is spent on cancer research in the UK every year, yet less than 3% is spent on brain tumours
