Share Your Story

Your story can help others on the journey with a brain tumour to feel connected. There are opportunities for you to share your story with the public to raise awareness about Spring Sprint (this includes speaking with staff and volunteers and may include interviews for your local newspaper, television and/or radio stations). If you are camera shy and only want to share your story online, we are pleased to offer that option as well. You can write out your story here.
