The Ways Ahead project is funded by the Brain Tumour Charity, with the shared aim of improving support for people living with a brain tumour. Click the logo to find out more about the world's leading brain tumour charity. 

The overall objective of this project is to design a 'supported self-management programme' that supports people to manage the physical, psychological, and social consequences of living with a brain tumour. Visit the 'Project Outputs' page to see our progress so far.

If people would be interested in working with us on further analyses on any of the datasets in this project, then please contact us to discuss.
