How We Can Help

Brain Tumour Action provides a wide range of services and supports a wide range of activities. Our vision is of a day when brain tumours are brought under control and patients can take up their full lives again as soon as possible. Until that day comes, here’s how we can help:

    Brain Tumour Funding and Awareness Raising.

    On 24th April at 1pm outside Edinburgh Parliament there will be a Brain Tumour Funding and Awareness Rally organised by Rachel Clark. She says:

    “We will be having a meeting on the day with the Scottish Health Minister, Alex Neil, to discuss the current lack of awareness and funding for brain tumours.â€

    Twelve MSPs who signed up expressing their support at Brain Tumour Action’s week of lobbying last November have also been invited.
