I’m taking part in Tour de 4 2026, the cycling event launched by Sir Chris Hoy following his Stage 4 cancer diagnosis. It brings together people living with Stage 4 cancer, alongside friends, families and supporters, to ride side by side and raise vital funds.

I was diagnosed out of the blue with untreatable cancer and brain tumours just 3 months ago. This event allows me to focus

on doing something to make a difference for others who will come after me.

I don't know how well I will be in September but I am trying to

live my life with hope and joy and leave the fear behind.

I love cycling and through this I want to support research in to Brain tumours. There is relatively little research in this area and very limited treatment. Men are more likely to develop Brain Tumours.

The event is about showing that a diagnosis does not define a person, and highlighting what life with Stage 4 cancer can look like: strength, resilience and determination.

All funds raised will go to charities supporting people affected by Stage 4 cancer. If you’re able to donate or share, I’d be incredibly grateful. Every contribution helps provide vital support and care.
