We won a £1,000 Movement for Good Award!

We are delighted to say that, thanks to the kind support of everyone who nominated our charity, we have been awarded £1,000 in the Ecclesiastical Movement for Good awards.

Specialist insurer Ecclesiastical is giving away a total of £1 million to various UK charities across the year. So far, awards of £1,000 have been given out to 500 charities, and YBTC is one of them!

This incredible sum of money will enable us to support patients of all ages, and their loved ones, who have had their lives turned upside down because of a brain cancer diagnosis.

This includes the cost of continuing our telephone and email support clinics, which help to reduce isolation in these difficult times and are available 9am-10pm, 7 days a week. These enable us to signpost individuals to other forms of help, including our patient grants, support groups, counselling sessions and welfare advice.

Your support means we can be there for people when they need us the most, reducing isolation, loneliness and fear and ensuring they have access to people who really understand what they are going through in what are often very distressing situations.

In total, we will be able to support 96 people affected by a brain tumour using this award.

A huge thank you to everyone who took the time to nominate us, your support means the world to us.
