Samantha Dickson Brain Tumour Trust exists to find a cure for childhood and adult brain tumours. Samantha Dickson Brain Tumour Trust was first registered with the Charity Commission in 1996.
Since 1996, the charity has become the largest dedicated brain tumour charity in the UK with the highest level of laboratory based brain tumour research in the country. The Trust also offers support to patients diagnosed with a brain tumour as well as their families and/or carers.
In addition to the main organisation, in 2001 the SDBTT Astro Fund was founded. This is especially concerned with low-grade gliomas. Gliomas are the most common type of primary brain tumour; of these, 30% are low grade. The SDBTT Astro Fund raises funds for research and offers support to patients and carers affected by low-grade gliomas - see www.astrofund.org.uk
