A brain tumour diagnosis can change everything. Suddenly, patients and families are faced with uncertainty, difficult decisions and challenges they never expected to navigate.

At Peace of Mind Foundation, we believe no family should face brain cancer alone. 💜

We provide personalised support, guidance and advocacy to help patients, carers and families access the practical, emotional and financial support they need, from diagnosis through to bereavement.

Because behind every diagnosis is a person, a family and a life that matters. And everyone deserves to feel supported, heard and understood throughout their journey.

This week (and always), we stand alongside our brain cancer community and remind anyone affected that you don't have to navigate this alone.

Find out how we can help via the link below. 💜

Wendy has a wonderful ability to make people feel at ease. Through her quiet, thoughtful approach, she takes the time to listen, reflect and carefully work through what is needed, helping patients and families feel heard, understood and supported.

When people are navigating complex systems and facing uncertainty, having someone who listens without rushing, patiently works through the details and helps make things feel more manageable can mean so much. Wendy brought this care and steadiness to the people she supported, making a difference in her own thoughtful way.

Sadly, due to a lack of sustainable funding, Wendy is unable to continue with Peace of Mind Foundation. Despite our ongoing efforts to secure government and other funding, and the wonderful support shown during our Giving Day, we have been unable to raise enough to sustain these vital roles.

It is so disappointing to lose such valued team members when the need for advocacy and practical support remains so great. We are continuing to advocate for sustainable funding so that people affected by brain cancer can access the support they need.

Wendy, thank you for the patience, thoughtfulness and care you brought to every interaction. Your work has mattered, and we are grateful for the difference you have made.

We wish you all the very best for the future. You will be missed.

You can help us advocate for the future of the National Advocacy Service.

Contact your local Federal MP and ask them to support sustainable funding for specialist brain cancer advocacy services, so patients and families can access the guidance and practical support they need when facing a diagnosis.

Every conversation helps raise awareness. Every voice adds weight to the call for change.

Together, we can help make sure people affected by brain cancer are not left to navigate complex systems alone. by @peaceofmindfoundation

A huge thank you to Connor’s family, friends and everyone involved in Coming Together For a Cure. 💜

In honour of Connor Lynch, who passed away from brain cancer at just 27, this incredible community has raised $19,256.57, more than doubling their original $8,000 goal!

Half of the funds raised will support Peace of Mind Foundation, with the other half going to the Mark Hughes Foundation.

Connor was passionate about raising money to help find a cure for brain cancer, and it’s beautiful to see his family continuing his legacy through this event. Your ongoing support over the years means so much to us and helps us continue supporting individuals and families affected by brain cancer.

Thank you for keeping Connor’s memory alive and turning love into action. 💜 by @peaceofmindfoundation

It’s with a heavy heart that we farewell Tera Jesperson, who has been a valued team member of our National Advocacy Service.

Tera brought something incredibly special to the people she supported. Her gentle nature, deep empathy and ability to really connect with patients and families meant so much to those facing some of the most difficult moments of their lives. She went above and beyond, offering not just guidance and practical support, but a sense of understanding, kindness and care that helped people feel less alone.

Tera has a beautiful way of making people feel seen and heard. The compassion she brought to her work has made a real difference, and we are so grateful for everything she has given to the families who have crossed her path.

Sadly, due to a lack of sustainable funding, Tera’s position was unable to continue with Peace of Mind Foundation. Despite our continued efforts to secure government and other funding, and the incredible generosity shown during our Giving Day, we have been unable to raise enough to sustain Tera’s role.

This is an incredibly difficult outcome, particularly when we know how much these services mean to the people who need them.

Tera, thank you for the care, warmth and heart you brought to your role. You have made a difference that reaches far beyond the work itself, and we wish you every happiness in what comes next.

You can help us advocate for the future of the National Advocacy Service.

Contact your local Federal MP and ask them to support sustainable funding for specialist brain cancer advocacy services, so patients and families can access the guidance and practical support they need when facing a diagnosis.
