Mike White – Rider Profile

I am taking on the End 2 End challenge to raise more awareness and money for children and young people that have a brain tumour. I am very passionate about supporting researchers to find new treatments and establishing new trials. Also, due to a high number of drugs that help fight cancer today which don’t come without risks and issues for the recipient. I want to raise money to help support finding a better/new way of delivering these drugs, therefore this may lead to less harm and late effects. 

I have personal experiences with family that have had a brain tumour. My son died after being treated for nearly 5 years to stop his brain tumour. My wife recently died after her cancer spread to her brain and there was nothing the medics could do about it. I just had to bring her home to die peacefully.
