Power of David
Power of David was set up in memory of David Hetherington, a loving husband and dad of two. David was diagnosed with a low-grade oligoastrocytoma, which over time changed to a grade four glioblastoma. He underwent chemotherapy, radiotherapy and immunotherapy to control the tumour but David sadly passed in November 2016 at the age of 39, leaving his wife, Shaz, and two young children Layla and Daniel.
The name, Power of David, was inspired by David’s ability to impact others in a positive way – a quality which Shaz called his ‘superpower’. The group embodies his hope and positivity, keeping David’s memory alive and raising vital funds for research. The London Walk of Hope is organised by Power of David and named David Hetherington Memorial Walk of Hope in his honour.
