CAMPAIGNING

CAMPAIGNERS

ARE POWERFUL Our dedicated campaigners are passionate about improving options and outcomes for brain tumour patients. Brain Tumour Research is grateful to those supporters who engage with politicians to keep brain tumours on the agenda.

Amongst them is Stuart Grant, who was diagnosed with a grade 2 oligodendroglioma in 2019. His ‘brutal’ treatment consisted of a craniotomy, followed by radiotherapy and chemotherapy.

Stuart said: “The fact that brain tumours have only received 1% of the national spend on cancer research since records began in 2002 is appalling, especially seeing as they’re the biggest cancer killer of children and adults under the age of 40. It’s counterintuitive and makes no sense at all, which is why I want to help. Brain Tumour Research does great work and I feel it’s a great charity to be involved with.”
