Brain Tumour Awareness Month
Our awareness-raising activities include:
A minute’s silence to remember those lost
Our community lighting candles and sharing photos on social media to #ShineALight
Landmarks shining in pink and yellow to support our Light Up the UK campaign
And of course, Wear A Hat Day where communities, workplaces and schools come together for fun hat-themed fundraising events and challenges
Plus there are lots more ways you can help raise awareness and give hope to the one in three people who knows someone affected by a brain tumour.
