Brain tumour patients share heartbreaking stories as campaigner Archie Goodburn urges PM to act on cancer research

Every year 13,000 people are diagnosed with a primary brain tumour. The diagnosis is devastating , with only 12.9 per cent of adults in England living for five years or more. It is the leading cause of cancer deaths in children and adults under 40 in the UK. Their plight led Scottish swimmer Archie Goodburn, 25, to plead for more funding for rare cancer research during an impassioned call to action to the Prime Minister in August.
