New to Brain Tumour Support and not sure where to start? Our free guide “Introduction to our support services” explains everything we offer and how to access it. It is also available in Welsh — both versions are free to download from our booklets and resources page.
A brain tumour diagnosis can affect far more than treatment or recovery. Many people experience ongoing emotional, practical and everyday challenges that aren't always visible to others.
Whatever you are facing — as a patient, a family member or someone supporting a person you love — you don't have to navigate it alone.
If you recognise your own experience, or want to better understand the support available, explore stories from others in our community who have faced similar challenges.
