Story

In January 2025 I underwent a second craniotomy to remove a regrowth of a rare brain tumour first operated on in October 2020. When recovering from this surgery me and my partner Chris took on the challenge of Couch to 5K, helping me rebuilt my strength and spend time outdoors.

Now that we have completed Couch to 5k and moved to London we have taken on our next challenge- the London Landmarks Half Marathon in April 2026!

We will be fundraising for The Brain Tumour Charity, who were incredibly helpful in providing young adult support during my own diagnosis and treatment. Being a young person with an oncologist can sometimes feel like an isolating experience but the Young Adult support group helped me to feel like I wasn't alone. The charity also funds vital research into rare brain tumours like my own, where answers and security are unfortunately few and far between.

Thank you so much in advance for donating whatever you can, it really will make a massive difference.
