Our group support sessions are available for people facing a brain tumour diagnosis, their family, friends and carers.

These regular support groups provide a safe space for those who have a brain tumour to connect with others. You can ask questions, get support from others and share your own experiences – it’s a safe space where you can be totally open.

The virtual meetings have helped me feel less lonely and isolated.  It’s lovely seeing everyone from the support group and just having a chat with other people who understand.

About our groups

Our monthly schedule of online support sessions offers the opportunity for patients, family members, friends and carers to connect, gain support and information, and share experiences via Zoom.

Newcomers to the group are always welcome.

​You can join these regular, live online meet-ups via your computer, laptop, tablet or mobile phone. Before you join the online support session you will need to download Zoom onto your device, computer or tablet.  Zoom is a free application.

Our online sessions are facilitated by a trained Support Professional so there is always someone on hand to help.

Don’t worry about attending an online meeting.  You don’t have to turn your camera on if you’d prefer not to.  You’ll be given the option to use your camera before joining the meeting.

Instructions to join the call

You will be sent a Zoom link which you need to log into on the day of the session. You can keep your camera off or put it on, whatever makes you feel most comfortable but our group facilitators will have theirs on and check that everyone has logged on.


You can also join our Facebook forum at any time

You’ll be welcomed by other patients, survivors and family members who understand because they’re going through it too.
