We know it can be hard to know where to start, that’s why we’ve redesigned the brainstrust website!

It’s now easier to find support, information and guidance, whether you’re a patient, caregiver, healthcare professional or fundraiser.

Sometimes it’s not just about taking a break, but having things written down, knowing who’s who, and feeling a little more prepared for what’s next.

Our free Brain Book is there to help you keep everything in one place, at your own pace:

How are you doing in this heat? ☀️

A drink, a moment to pause, and a bit of space to gather your thoughts. Warm weather can take more out of us than we expect, especially when energy levels or concentration already feel harder to manage.

🧵 ⬇️

💧 Hydrate steadily and listen to your body - sip throughout the day rather than in big gulps, and take dizziness, unusual confusion, or a sudden fatigue spike in heat seriously. Get inside, cool down, and don't push through.

Sometimes, when you’re affected by a brain tumour, life can feel like too much - the anxiety, the uncertainty, the overwhelm.
