Brain Research UK

Our vision is a world where everyone with a neurological condition lives better, longer.

There is an estimated 11 million people in the UK living with a neurological condition. These conditions are wide-ranging and and include sudden onset conditions such as stroke or traumatic brain injury, progressive, degenerative conditions such as Alzheimer's disease and intermittent conditions such as epilepsy and headache disorders. 

When the brain changes, we change. When it is struck by a brain tumour, an injury or disease, the consequences can be devastating. Neurological conditions cause 140,000 deaths a year in the UK and they are the leading cause of disability worldwide. 

Brain Research UK, the UK's leading dedicated funder of neurological research, funds research to advance the understanding of the changes that take place in the brain and how these can be overcome. We fund the best science to achieve the greatest impact for people effected by neurological conditions, to help them live life better, longer. 

Thank you so much. Your support will help to ensure continued funding of life changing, life saving research.

Brain Tumour Research

Our vision is to find a cure for brain tumours.

Brain tumours are indiscriminate; they can affect anyone at any age. What’s more, they kill more children and adults under the age of 40 than any other cancer... yet historically just 1% of the national spend on cancer research has been allocated to this devastating disease.

Brain Tumour Research is determined to change this.

We are building a network of experts in sustainable research at dedicated Centres of Excellence whilst influencing the UK Governments and larger cancer charities to invest more nationally.

We are the only national charity in the UK that is dedicated to raising funds for continuous and sustainable scientific research into brain tumours and we are a leading voice calling for greater support and action for research into what scientists are calling the last battleground against cancer.

Help us fund the fight.

Together we will find a cure.

FND Hope UK

FND Hope UK is part of the first and only global patient-led charity for people with Functional Neurological Disorder. Originating as a grassroots campaign, it uncovers the hidden world of FND and empowers those affected to live their best possible life.

Functional Neurological Disorder (FND) is a problem with the functioning of the nervous system and how the brain and body send and receive signals. This causes a range of neurological symptoms such as seizures, weakness, paralysis and chronic pain. FND has multiple causes and can be triggered by physical injury, psychological or other trauma to the brain and or body. This stops the nervous system working properly. The disruption to the signals is like letters being sent to the wrong address, despite having the correct label. FND Hope UK campaigns to improve understanding, working with those affected, researchers and health professionals. We support people to enjoy the best life they can, advocating for their right to diagnosis, treatment and care.
