Christine Osmond
I lost my husband In June 2007 with the most aggressive brain tumour. At this time there was very little support or information on brain tumours for him or me.
I joined Andrea's Gift in 2009, now called Yorkshire's Brain Tumour Charity, and started fundraising and supporting the charity, as I wanted to help raise awareness and hopefully help other people who are going through what I went through.
Over the years I have seen considerable changes, and there are more positive changes due for the future. I feel honoured that I have been a part of that growth as a volunteer/Ambassador. I feel now I have the time to give to be a Trustee. My perspective and voice will be from a carer's/patient's point of view, which I hope will support our CEO in taking the charity forward.
