THOUSANDS of pupils are to take cards home with them from schools across York next month, outlining the warning signs of brain tumours.
The move marks the second phase of a concerted campaign by three York mothers – whose children all fell ill with such tumours – to raise awareness of the condition.
Julia Holding, Marie Hughes and Emma Taylor recently gave a presentation to head teachers from primary and secondary schools across the city, asking for help in their bid to reduce the time it takes to diagnose the condition in children and young people.
