Bethany’s story
Bethany was a beautiful, fun loving, sporty girl who was diagnosed totally out of the blue with a brain tumour! Just weeks before her diagnoses she was representing her school, Presdales, in cross country.
She battled very bravely for almost a year. In that time she underwent six operations, six weeks of daily radiotherapy and six courses of chemotherapy. She never complained throughout her treatment and just wanted to get back to normal and back to school so she could be with her friends.
Our world collapsed when she lost her battle in November 2008, aged just 12 years old.
The Brain Tumour Charity is the UK’s leading charity dedicated to brain tumour research and patient information and support. We decided to set up the Fund so that we could raise money in Bethany’s memory. If you would like to help us in any way to raise money for this magnificent cause please do not hesitate to contact us.
