Description

We meet Gavin Burden and Louise Worthington who have both been diagnosed with brain tumours. Gavin has been living with his brain tumour since he was 21 - for 28 years. Gavin and Louise have been friends for a long time so when Louise was diagnosed with a brain tumour in 2018 Gavin contacted her to offer support.
In the episode, they share the difficulties of living with hidden disabilities as Gavin has since lost 75% of his vision.

Despite these challenges, they have decided to celebrate Gavin turning 50 by taking on a 25km challenge! You can find out more about Gavin and Louise here
If you want to get involved in their challenge you can email them at: Loungav25kwalk@gmail.com
