The Samantha Dickson Brain Tumour Trust is a growing organisation, and as part of this the Research & Policy department is increasing its activities. The policy focus of the department’s work includes involvement with the Brain Tumour Consortium and All Party Parliamentary Group on Brain Tumours, development of position statements on matters of policy and undertaking projects on specific issues affecting brain tumour research and people with this condition.
