Story

 Wear A Hat Day takes place during March, Brain Tumour Awareness Month. 

Brain tumours kill more children and adults under the age of 40 than any other cancer. 

Brain Tumour Research is the only national charity focused on funding vital, long-term research at Centres of Excellence in the UK.  

From cosy coffee mornings to fun film nights; delicious bake-offs to hattastic quizzes, there’s no end to the events you can hold for your Wear A Hat Day!

Brain tumours kill more children and adults under the age of 40 than any other cancer. Just 1% of the national spend on cancer research has been allocated to this disease. We are a leading voice calling for support and action for research into what is called the last battleground against cancer.
