flag Siva Kaneswaran leads a UK campaign using art to raise glioblastoma awareness, honoring bandmate Tom Parker’s legacy.

flag Siva Kaneswaran, former member of The Wanted, is leading a new awareness campaign for glioblastoma following the 2022 death of bandmate Tom Parker, who died at 33 from an inoperable brain tumor. flag He is promoting the GenesisCare UK Memory Bank, a multi-sensory art installation created by patients and loved ones, featuring an abstract painting based on a functional MRI scan with hidden messages revealed under UV light—a reference to a treatment that helps surgeons see tumors during surgery. flag The artwork includes audio recordings capturing personal memories and aims to highlight the importance of connection, hope, and cherishing moments after a diagnosis. flag Displayed first at Oxford’s Westgate shopping centre and later at a GenesisCare clinic, the project underscores advancements in care that help preserve quality of life and brain function. flag More information is available at www.genesiscare.com/uk/memory_bank.
