Young Adults Events

If you’re aged 16-30 and living with, or beyond, a brain tumour diagnosis, join us at one of our Young Adults online events and connect with others who understand.

We also have a range of young adult services to help young adults who are living with a brain tumour.

We truly understand that finding out you or someone close to you has a brain tumour is scary, lonely, and confusing. We are here to help you through difficult times.

Please don’t worry about…

• If you have trouble joining the Zoom. Our friendly team will be on hand to help as much as possible.
• Having your camera and microphone on if you don’t want to. If you would prefer to join and just listen to other’s experiences that is absolutely okay. We however ask that you let us know this is your intention before the event and that you can turn your microphone on or use the chat function if needed so we can check you’re okay.
• If you cannot attend for the entire event, if you need to leave for any reason, that is okay. We ask that you let us know as much as possible that you’re going to leave so we can check you’re okay.
• Knowing others who are attending. Joining this event is a space to connect with others and is a welcoming and friendly space.  

If you have any questions please contact the Young Adults Team on YAS@thebraintumourcharity.org.
