Sanderson Weatherall’s annual charity bike ride from 18 to 20 September 2025 will be taking on a Scottish approximate 200 mile circular route starting and finishing Glasgow taking on the challenges of Loch Lomond and the Trossachs, Perth and Kinross and Stirlingshire to raise awareness and much needed funds for the Brain Tumour Charity.
We have chosen this important charity for 2025 with brain cancer being very close to the hearts of Sanderson Weatherall and one of the riders in the team with this devastating disease bearing a big impact on the family.
Christian Humphreys, Partner ABL Valuation & Advisory at Sanderson Weatherall, commented:
“After receiving the news of a close family member, diagnosed with multiple glioblastoma tumours in later 2024, we have been working hard to support funding for vital research on the most aggressive type of brain tumour to help raise awareness and drive change. Glioblastoma is the most commonly diagnosed high grade primary brain tumour in adults. Incurable with survival often just 12-18 months from diagnosis. Devastating and yet treatments have not improved in over 20 years. Around 3,200 people are diagnosed with a glioblastoma every year in the UK; and of those, just 160 will survive for five years or more. Glioblastoma accounts for one in three primary brain tumour diagnoses.
Brain cancer is brutal, there is no cure and treatment only aims to slow it down, to give people like my brother in law more time with our loved ones. More time to make memories, more time to hope. However, awareness and funding are desperately needed for better research, better treatments and one day hopefully a cure and only support and funding can help to achieve that goal”.
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.
