Our mission is to support patients, carers and loved ones free of charge and for as long as it is needed. Every donation helps ensure that support will be there when people need it most.
Brain Tumour Support receives no statutory funding and relies on the generosity of our supporters’ donations fundraising, and grant-making trusts and funds to ensure that we are here for those who need us. We have to raise £600,000 per year to continue providing our comprehensive services. But demand for our support is growing daily so we need to increase that annual funding in order to fulfil future demand.
Every single donation makes a difference and regular donations are vital, helping us provide support today and plan for the future. You can donate simply and securely online.
If you are making a payment to us of at least £10, you can donate to us using your credit or debit card via our online donation page.

To say “yes” to Gift Aid you must be a UK taxpayer and understand that if you pay less Income Tax and /or Capital Gains Tax in the current tax year than the amount of Gift Aid claimed on all your donations it is your responsibility to pay any difference.
Gift Aid is equal to 25% of your donation. For example: If you donate £10 and say “yes” to Gift Aid, we can claim £2.50 from the Government. You will need to pay more than £2.50 in Income Tax and/or Capital Gains Tax in that tax year.
We will also need your full name and home address or we cannot claim Gift Aid. Find out more about Gift Aid.
Gift Aid only applies to personal donations, so your company donation will not be eligible. For a charity to benefit from the tax on a company donation, the donation should be paid gross (without deducting Income Tax). The company can then claim tax relief when calculating its profits for Corporation Tax.
For further information, please contact your Tax Office or accountants.
