Cancer charities have praised the " amazing" job The Wanted singer Tom Parker did raising awareness and funding for Brain cancer before his death at the Age Of 33.

" He was amazing, honest and positive. "

Ms Dauncey said Parker drew attention to " solutions and treatments over the over his illness" saying " so many people would have just shut The Doors , locked everyone out and wanted to just stick with their family and friends".

Instead, The Singer " got people together, made a documentary, had a concert [and] brought so many people's attention to this sort of terrible lack of awareness".

Ms Dauncey said it was " incredible that he was so public about his illness, and that he was happy to share his journey".

The Singer had said he did not want to talk about " fighting or battling with cancer" but The Charity chief executive added: " But in a way, he was because he was, you know, he was shouting about it.

" And I think there must be so many people who had never thought about it before. "

Susan Short, professor of clinical oncology and neuro-oncology at the University of Leeds, said Parker's medical condition was " challenging to deal with, even more so when you're in The Public eye".

" It must be very difficult to know How To handle that but he did an amazing job, " she told BBC Radio 5 Live.

" It is important that individuals like him help us raise The Profile of this disease and let The Public know that there are these tumours that are still very challenging to treat. "

She Said in terms of fundraising for " vital" research, The Goal was to " try and move The Field on an improved the output of these patients".

" Tom and The Band did that, " She Said .

Stand Up To Cancer UK, who Parker raised money for through a charity concert at The Royal Albert Hall , said: " We're so sorry to hear about the death of Tom Parker . Our thoughts are with his wife Kelsey and their family. "

Kelsey Hardwick , who had two young children with the late singer, wrote on Social Media on Wednesday: " Thank You to everyone who has supported in his care throughout, he fought until the very end. I'm forever proud of you. "

Brain Tumour Research sent their " deepest condolences to Kelsey, their children and all of Tom's loved ones" adding: " His loss will be greatly felt by his bandmates from The Wanted , their fans and throughout the pop world. "

Hugh Adams, head of the organisation's stakeholder relations, said Parker speaking so " openly and honestly" had " helped to raise awareness of the devastation caused by Brain tumours".

" We remember Tom for his passion, intelligence, eloquence and determination in The Face of such adversity and will continue to remember him as we Focus On our vision of finding a cure for all types of Brain tumours, " he added.
