Your gift helps us support anyone affected by a brain tumour. Every contribution strengthens the services families rely on.
Giving Tuesday is the global day of giving — a moment each year when people around the world come together to show generosity in all its forms. Led in the UK by the Chartered Institute of Fundraising, it takes place every year on the Tuesday following Thanksgiving, uniting charities, communities, and businesses in celebrating the positive impact of giving.
This year’s theme is Give Your Way — because there’s a meaningful and empowering way for everyone to get involved. Whether it’s offering time, sharing your story, spreading the word, or making a donation, every act of kindness helps make a difference. And it starts with you.
Giving Tuesday is a global movement that inspires generosity. After Black Friday and Cyber Monday, it creates space for supporting the causes that matter most. Millions of people participate worldwide by donating, volunteering, fundraising, and championing the organisations they care about.
Here at Brain Tumour Support, Giving Tuesday is a special opportunity to highlight the power of community — and the impact that compassionate supporters like you have every single day.
In the UK, someone is diagnosed with a brain tumour every 33 minutes. For each of those people — and for their loved ones — support is vital.
By choosing to Give Your Way this Giving Tuesday, you help ensure that no one faces a brain tumour diagnosis alone. Your support enables us to provide emotional and practical help, specialist support groups, counselling, family services, and guidance when people need it most.
Every gesture, big or small, helps continue this vital work.
