Brain Tumour Research becomes affiliate charity of Our Future Health

Brain Tumour Research

Brain Tumour Research is the only national charity in the UK focused on finding a cure for all types of brain tumours. The charity is campaigning to increase national investment in brain tumour research to £35 million per year and fundraising to build a network of seven sustainable Brain Tumour Research Centres of Excellence across the UK. 

Brain tumours

Brain tumours kill more children and adults under the age of 40 than any other cancer, yet just 1% of the national spend on cancer research has been allocated to this devastating disease since records began in 2002. Brain Tumour Research is determined to change this.
