FANTASTIC PEOPLE...fundraising for the cause, we couldn't do it without you!
We are truly indebted to so many people who are helping us fund the fight against brain tumours. We are grateful
for all monies received large or small, from widow's mites to King's Ransoms!
The many different ways people are helping us to raise much needed money for brain tumour research is amazing.
Amounts received include:
- Donations
- In memorium donations given at funerals
- In celebration donations given in lieu of birthday and anniversary presents
- Selling items made, second hand items, in the home, on stalls or through car boot sales
- Organising events
- Getting sponsored for something
- Funds raised by our partners - businesses choosing Brain Tumour Research as their Charity of the Year
- Umbrella Groups - set up by those who want a fund in their own loved ones name
