Wear grey for brain tumour charity day
10:00am Sunday 23rd September 2012 in News
A HEREFORD man who has a brain tumour is asking people to wear grey for the day.
Shaun Skinner hopes to have 5,000 people signed up before October 1 after setting up the scheme last year.
Shaun, 40, was diagnosed with a tumour five years ago and told that he had between three and five years to live.
But instead of giving up, he decided to do something positive to raise awareness of brain tumours and the charity brainstrust .
“It is not a charity to rest on its laurels, always seeking out new ways to help patients and their carers and to continue funding research projects and looking at new ways to tackle brain tumours,” said Shaun.
