Here's me blethering about how I first got into fundraising (part one of two 😉)

One year ago, we handed in our open letter at Westminster, Holyrood and the Senedd, calling on the Government to implement a National Brain Tumour Strategy.
Since then, we’ve kept up the pressure to drive real change. 🧠 #BrainTumourStrategy

“I’d really encourage others to register. It’s so easy to join, and if you ever do get called, I guarantee you that it would be the most rewarding thing you'll ever do,” shares stem cell donor, Bradley.

💡 Just 3% of the £700m spent on cancer research in the UK goes to brain tumours. That’s not good enough.
Without more funding and research, progress will remain too slow, and those affected will continue to face poorer outcomes. This needs to change. ⬇️

Happy birthday to the legendary Townes Van Zandt, born on this day in 1944!
Many of his songs are widely considered masterpieces of American songwriting…

Sadly, Mason doesn’t have a perfect match on the stem cell register and his dual Bajan/ Caribbean, and white European heritage make it much harder to find a match.
Please be a hero for Mason by sharing his story and registering at dkms.org.uk/mason_tw
Let’s find him a match
🚨 PLEASE SHARE: YOU COULD BE MASON’S HERO! 🚨
5-year-old Mason has a rare #blooddisorder and a stem cell transplant is his chance at having a ‘normal life’.
👉 Aged 17-55? Register as a stem cell donor today: dkms.org.uk/mason_tw

Brain tumours don’t discriminate—they can strike anyone at any time. Every day, 34 people in the UK are diagnosed, and over 5,000 lose their lives each year. We're here to change that. Learn how we're moving further, faster at the link below.

📢 Update: Dylan is STILL searching for his stem cell donor!
9-year-old Dylan from #NorthernIreland has severe aplastic anaemia and needs a stem cell transplant. Tragically, he has no perfect match.

Brilliant from Bodo💚💚
Norwegian club Bodo/Glimt will donate all the ordinary ticket revenue from the home match against Maccabi Tel Aviv to the Red Cross in Gaza.
“Glimt will not ignore the suffering and violations of international law that are unfolding”
Absolutely class from @Glimt 🇵🇸
