Brave Phoebe, 8, completes walk in memory of her mum
A little girl who lost her mum to a brain tumour marked what would have been her 33rd birthday with a sponsored walk to find a cure for the disease.
Phoebe Hope Vines, who is now being brought up by Tetford grandparents Claire and Steve Vines, completed the eight-mile hike last Sunday (October 7) from Skegness to Ingoldmells with 13 friends and family members.
To date she has raised close to £5,000 to help find a cure.
Phoebe’s mum, Becky, was diagnosed at the age of 23 with a glioblastoma multiforme (GBM), a highly aggressive brain tumour.
