John Hartson is a former Welsh international striker, best known for his career with West Ham and Celtic. Hartson also featured prominently for Wales, earning 51 caps until his international retirement in 2006.
In July 2009 Hartson began treatment for testicular cancer which had metastasised spreading to both his brain and lungs; he later underwent emergency neurosurgery on his brain.
By December 2009 it was reported that the cancer had been virtually eradicated from John’s body and by January 2010 he was well enough to appear as a pundit for ITV’s coverage of the 2009/2010 FA cup.
Come and hear more of his inspiring story.
