Zara’s Appeal for a Cure
Zara Taylor was just 30 when she was diagnosed with a grade 4 glioblastoma (GBM) in January 2021. She underwent surgery, followed by radiotherapy and chemotherapy, and pursued privately-funded treatment alongside her standard of care NHS treatment, but sadly nothing could save Zara and she died in October 2023, aged 33.
After her diagnosis, Zara took part in a number of fundraising challenges for Brain Tumour Research, including our Walk of Hope, 10,000 Steps a Day in February and Jog 26 Miles in May Challenge. She set up the Zara’s Appeal for a Cure Fundraising Group to bring family, friends and colleagues together to raise vital funds and awareness to help stop the devastation of brain tumours.
You can text ZARA to 70085 to donate £5 to Brain Tumour Research. Texts cost £5 plus one standard rate message. Or donate via the Zara’s Appeal for a Cure JustGiving page
