Here we meet Charlie who was studying for her GCSEs at the time of her brain tumour diagnosis. Her diagnosis was a long time coming as she first started experiencing headaches at the age of 11, something that other people thought she was making up just to get out of school. Two brain haemorrhages later and Charlie was told she had a slow-growing tumour and PACKER chemotherapy was needed. Now Charlie has to deal with numerous late effects due to her cancer treatment however Charlie wouldn’t change any of her experiences at all and even hopes to return to college one day to sit her GCSEs.

  • I’m Charlie’s older sister & I just wanted to say how very proud I am of her. I’ve seen her go through so much, being so ill, losing friends, celebrating success stories…She is so brave & such an inspiration! I’m so proud she is back on her feet & starting to have a life again!

    Love you so much Charlie, we’re all so lucky to have you!
