Story

Over 15,000 people will be diagnosed with a brain tumour in 2018. We know that these people will have to deal with a potential cancer diagnosis, as well as invisible challenges like memory loss and loss of identity.

That's why on the 1st October 2018, we're asking you to Wear Grey to raise awareness of the invisible illness that is brain cancer.

Since the launch of Wear Grey in 2011, together we have raised over £100,000 to support the brain tumour community. This year, there will be thousands of people coming together to turn the world grey and show their support for people battling brain tumours.

By wearing grey on 1/10/18, we will be showing the world that it is ok to talk about brain tumours, and the impact that a brain tumour can have.

Signing up for Wear Grey is easy! Just go to www.brainstrust.org.uk/weargrey2018 and register for your fundraising pack today! You'll then be sent your pack, which will be full of helpful materials, tips and ideas to help make your Wear Grey event a huge success!

Once registered, set up your fundraising page, and encourage as many of your family, friends and colleagues to get involved in Wear Grey 2018. Together, we can make Wear Grey 2018 the best ever, and support the brain tumour community better than ever before.
