A local charity has donated £10,000 to The Brain Tumour Charity in the hope of finding a cure.
Naseem's Manx Brain Tumour Charity's donation will go towards funding a three-year research project led by Dr Colin Watts in Cambridge - where they will investigate the cancer.
Research suggests that brain tumours are the biggest cancer killers of people under 40 in Britain, yet the area is still underfunded and survival rates haven't improved in 40 years.
Geri Pishvaie says they are a small local charity and work hard to try and support sufferers that are resident here:
