Current roles

Student Counsellor

We are in a position to offer a number of unpaid student placements, to those training to be integrative or person centred counsellors, which will see you volunteer via telephone/webcam from home, with a wide range of clients; from those newly diagnosed, to those at end of life, carers and bereaved loved ones.

Qualified Counsellor

As a Volunteer Counsellor for this service, you would work with a wide range of clients who either have a brain tumour diagnosis themselves, or have a loved one who has been diagnosed. This includes patients/carers who have been newly diagnosed, to those in/post treatment, to people at end of life, or bereaved.

Cheer Champion

Bring your passion and energy and volunteer with us at one of our events to help support and cheer on everyone taking part.

Involvement Network

By joining our Involvement Network, you can use your personal experience with brain tumours to help influence the work we do at The Charity. There are many ways to take part — from reviewing our information and joining virtual focus groups to sharing your story or completing surveys.

Supporting The Charity gives me immense satisfaction, and is a huge source of pride. Now the priority of working and raising my family is less intense I have something else to give me a real purpose.
