Brain tumours remain the biggest cancer killer of children and young adults under 40, yet receive less than 3% of cancer research funding. Just 12% of adults survive for 5 years after diagnosis and brain tumours reduce life expectancy by an average of 27 year. Despite this, treatments into brain tumours haven’t changed in 40 years and research into brain tumours remains woefully underfunded. We’re set on finding new treatments, offering the highest level of support and driving urgent change.

We are the world’s leading brain tumour charity and the largest dedicated funder of research into brain tumours globally. Our vision is for people diagnosed with a brain tumour to live longer and better lives. From our industry-leading researchers to our dedicated support team, and you, our generous supporters, we are one community united with one simple aim, to defeat brain tumours. Breakthroughs are urgently needed, and with your support we can fund the bright minds who will make them happen.
