Brain Tumour Alliance Australia (BTAA) is the national brain tumour patient and carer support organisation in Australia. It was established in late 2008 by a group of brain tumour patients, and current and former carers. While welcoming the advice and input of specialists, BTAA seeks to represent the brain tumour community from the viewpoint of the patient, their carers, and their families.

Understanding brain cancer can feel overwhelming, especially at the beginning. This section provides clear, reliable information covering types of brain tumours, grading, diagnosis, treatment pathways, and what it means to live with the condition—along with key facts and insights to help you feel more informed and prepared.

Support looks different for everyone, and BTAA is here to help you find what you need. Through our peer support helpline, educational patient forums, and connections to trusted support groups and organisations, we offer pathways to information, understanding and community.

BTAA connects people, organisations, and government to foster collaboration and build awareness. We educate the community and inform decision-makers to shape policy and better outcomes.

There are many meaningful ways to get involved with BTAA. Whether you choose to make a donation, volunteer your time, become a member, share your story, or support our awareness efforts, every contribution helps strengthen our community and drive impact for those affected by brain tumours.

Stay up to date with the latest news, events and stories from the brain tumour community. This section features updates from BTAA, highlights of past and upcoming events, access to BTAA and IBTA magazines, and personal stories that share experiences, insights and inspiration from those affected.
