Michelle Doe, from Diss, lost her son Callum Doe in August 2020, just 20 months after he was first diagnosed with a diffuse midline glioma brain tumour. “It was terrifying because I’d lost an uncle to a brain tumour a couple of years previously. Norfolk-based Finnbar’s Force, a Member Charity of Brain Tumour Research, helped with travel expenses and experiences. With one in three people knowing someone affected by the disease, Mrs Doe is campaigning alongside Brain Tumour Research for greater investment. The Brain Tumour Charity is calling on the Government to ring-fence £110 million of current and new funding to kick-start an increase in the national investment in brain tumour research to £35 million a year by 2028.
