A HAMPSHIRE charity will receive a huge boost on Sunday (August 22) when it is featured on national radio.

Brainstrust, which was set up by King's Somborne mum Helen Bulbeck after her daughter Meg was diagnosed with a brain tumour, will be on BBC Radio 4 at 7.55am.

Meg, who had a successful operation to remove the tumour, was interviewed by actress Julie Walters for the station's regular charity slot.

The clip will be available on the corporation's catch-up service, iPlayer. It will also be repeated on Radio 4 at 15.27 on Thursday, August 26.
