About Wear A Hat Day
Wear A Hat Day has become a nationally important fundraising and awareness event that people all across the UK (and beyond!) support every year.
As the culmination of Brain Tumour Awareness Month, this fundraising ‘milestone’ is a great way to bring people together and raise vital funds for Brain Tumour Research.
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.
They are building a network of experts in sustainable research at dedicated Centres of Excellence whilst influencing the Government and larger cancer charities to invest more nationally.
They are the only national charity in the UK that is dedicated to raising funds for continuous and sustainable scientific research into brain tumours and a leading voice calling for greater support and action for research into what scientists are calling the last battleground against cancer.
