Welcome

Welcome to the Carers and Brain Tumours Website. This website aims to provide practical information and support for family and friends caring for people with a primary brain tumour in the UK. The information on this site comes from research conducted with carers of people diagnosed with a brain tumour. They have told us about what helped them and would have been useful, when they started out on their caring journey.

We hope that the information provided is helpful and useful. We are indebted to the carers who talked to us and gave their valuable time to develop this website resource. If you have any comments on this website, please contact info@carersandbraintumours.org
