My Fundraising

My Story

Those of you who know me, will know that my family, in particular my brother and his wife have had the scariest of summers. Whilst Andy is fortunate to have had an excellent medical team behind him, and a good prognosis ahead of him, the same cannot be said of many of the children and adults who are diagnosed with brain tumours every single day. I am thankful to still have my brother, and want more families to experience the same relief, by funding better diagnostics and pioneering treatments. And so with enough money pledged, I intend to shave off all of my hair to help bring forward a cure for brain tumours. It's on, target reached, clippers at the ready. Kindly hosted by the Ellis family at the Navigation Inn, Dobcross on 1/11/15 from 7:30pm. Yes, I'm making it a public spectacle. There is also an awesome sweepstake prize, and a raffle with prizes donated by the Navigation Inn, Moorlands Holistics in Diggle, the Albion Farm Shop, Java in Uppermill along with other goodies to be had. All proceeds of the sweepstake and raffle will be added to the overall total. Please come along, have a drink and a giggle at my expense. Hope to see you there. Thank you for taking the time to visit my fundraising page xxx

With more than 100 different types of brain tumour, donations can help Cancer Research UK find out what causes them and develop better treatments to improve the outlook for patients.
