A mother who lost her teenage son to a brain tumour is taking part in a hard-hitting campaign launched this week by the national charity Brain Tumour Research.
Niki O’Dea Patel from Woburn Sands lost her 13-year-old son Shay in September 2020.
She is sharing her tragic story in the advertisement campaign Stop the Devastation, which raises awareness of brain tumours and exposes the history of underfunding for research into the disease. People are encouraged to donate to help find a cure.
