It’s all too easy to take it for granted that we’ll have lots of chances to spend time with our loved ones in the future.

But for families affected by a brain tumour, having more time to enjoy making memories together is the greatest gift they could ever receive.

In the UK, brain tumours reduce life expectancy by an average of 27 years – the highest of any cancer – and they’re the biggest cancer killer of children and people under 40.

Together we can change that by funding pioneering research and providing life-changing support.

Hayley’s Story

“My husband Matt defied the odds and battled so bravely after we were told he only had 18 months to live – likely less. I do feel lucky because I know most families don’t get that extra time to make memories together.”

Will’s Story

“Every day is hard for my son Will since his treatment. We hope that by fundraising for The Brain Tumour Charity, we can accelerate new and kinder treatments that have less severe side-effects than what Will has been through.”

Namrata’s Story

“When Khushil was diagnosed, we were told there was no cure and that he had just six to nine months to live. By supporting The Brain Tumour Charity, I hope parents will no longer be robbed of the chance to make new memories with their child.”
