Tom’s Trust is the UK’s leading charity dedicated to providing psychological support to children with brain tumours and their families. By supporting the whole family, we help them to create their brightest possible future beyond diagnosis.

Our clinical psychologists support hundreds of children, and thousands of family members, within hospitals in the UK, helping from diagnosis, through their brutal treatment and as they return to life at home. Our team will also be there to support a family if their child is dying or has sadly died from this devastating disease.

Thursday is World Kindness Day.

From fact-checking and supporting vulnerable communities to spreading messages of tolerance, there are many ways we can counter hate speech through the power of kindness.

Together, we can say no to hate and create safe, inclusive spaces that uphold human rights, diversity and respect for all.

Kindness is our shared responsibility.

We are designing a new logo for our service and would like the input of the children and young people that we work with. We will be sending out emails about it shortly, but please have a look at this poster if you'd like to be involved. We're looking for words and pictures about your experiences and would love to know what you think. You might even get them incorporated into our logo!
