Katie’s sparkling tribute

Katie Gingell has put on a Sparkly Family Disco for our last two Sparkle Days in memory of her wonderful dad, Edward Crockford. He passed away in 2022, just three weeks after being diagnosed with a brain tumour. Katie says,

“Dad was utterly brilliant and his amazing, selfless self until the end, only ever thinking of us all. By holding fundraisers and raising money for Brain Tumour Support it feels like we are doing something to help others who may go through the same devastating situation.”

Through her Sparkle fundraisers, Katie and her family have raised over £2,000 and spread a lot of fun and love in tribute to her dad.

Other ways to get involved

  • At work: Encourage your workplace to become a corporate supporter and Sparkle Up Your Day from just £100.
  • At school, college or university: Organise a fundraising event or awareness campaign with your classmates.
  • In your community: Get together with your neighbours or community group to host a sparkly event or fundraiser.

Every donation, big or small, makes a difference in supporting those affected by brain tumours. Get ready to sparkle and shine!
