Two sisters are taking on a huge challenge in memory of their beloved dad who tragically passed away from a brain tumour.
Gill Conway, who lives in Shiremoor, North Tyneside, and her sister Sue Foster, who now lives in Hertfordshire, lost their father, Malcolm Jackson in June 2012 at the age of 73. He tragically passed away just 15 months after being diagnosed with a brain tumour.
The former headteacher was diagnosed with a frontal lobe glioblastoma multiforme (GBM) after suffering a seizure at his home near Carlisle, Cumbria. He underwent a debulking surgery followed by radiotherapy and although his initial treatment was successful, he declined quickly following the regrowth of his tumour.
