She has already raised over £5000 on her Justgiving page, so huge thanks to all her supporters. She has taken on this challenge in memory of her late husband Simon, so please keep up the support and help her raise even more for our desperately-needed research.

RESEARCH
Our brain tumour research programme is possibly one of the most comprehensive in the world. Its aim is to look at every possibility to improve the outlook for brain tumour patients by producing rapid “translational” research, ie research that translates into treatments as quickly as possible. We have examined every aspect of the patient pathway from diagnosis through treatment to survival and have identified areas that require improvement to achieve this.
RESEARCH SECTIONS:
Collaborations
The best research comes through exchanging ideas and collaborating with other institutions, both nationally and internationally.
Publications
Research funded by BTRC has produced numerous publications and presentations: here is a list of the published papers, abstracts, posters and presentations that our grants have facilitated.
DONATE
Donations, fundraising and sponsorship are vital to our work.
Our promise
We promise that unlike many charities today:
- none of the money raised will be spent on administration
- 100% of net donations will go to research projects
