Change The Story Appeal
Every day an average of 34 people are diagnosed with a brain tumour in the UK. A gift from you will help The Brain Tumour Charity change the story for people whose lives have been affected by a brain tumour.
Research is the only way we will discover kinder, more effective treatments and, ultimately, stamp out brain tumours – for good! However, brain tumours are complex and research in to them takes a great deal of time and money.
Across the UK, over 100,000 families are facing the overwhelming diagnosis of a brain tumour and it is only through the generosity of people like you can we continue to help them.
By donating to our Change The Story appeal, you’ll help The Charity fund pioneering research, provide life-changing support services and campaign for policy changes that improve life for everybody affected by a brain tumour.
We can’t rewrite Emily’s story. But together we can change the ending for others. We’ll never stop speaking about her, it’s all we can do now to ensure Emily lives on through us and that her death means something. Together, we can change the story for everyone facing a brain tumour diagnosis in the future.

How will your gift help us change the story?
A gift today could help us continue to change the story and tackle brain tumours on three fronts:
- funding groundbreaking research to advance kinder, more effective treatments for all brain tumours
- providing life-changing support services to families affected by a brain tumour diagnosis
- campaigning for meaningful policy changes that improve life for everyone diagnosed with a brain tumour.
Meet Professor Chris Jones, a researcher focusing on Diffuse Midline Gliomas.
This work shows the importance of understanding how brain tumours develop in order to figure out better ways to treat these patients. We were able to use this research to find specific vulnerabilities in cancer cells which hopefully we can now translate into clinical trials.
