'I have also decided to stage a fundraising concert, with some great artists, to raise money for @su2cuk and the National Brain Appeal and I'm really excited to tell you all the details very soon.'

Speaking about his documentary, Tom also told The Mirror: 'Almost a year ago, my world was turned upside down by my diagnosis.

'I'm determined to fight the disease and the terrible situation of the chronically low level of research that goes towards finding a cure and treatment for glioblastoma.'
It is thought that the documentary will see Tom looking into potential treatments and meeting other brain cancer patients.
The show will be part of the Stand Up To Cancer campaign and proceeds from the concert, thought to be happening at the Royal Albert Hall, will be split between the charity and The National Brain Appeal.
It comes after Tom revealed he gets motivation and support from Glioblastoma brain cancer survivor Dave Bolton.
