ADVOCATING FOR GBM
GBM receives too little attention and resources. A big part of what OurBrainBank does involves patient advocacy and raising awareness for GBM.
Through our patient-centred advocacy, we hope to inspire institutional, financial, medical and regulatory reform. Our GBM Bill of Rights, developed by those affected by GBM, is designed to empower people and inspire them to call for a better approach to GBM care.
Together with our allies and partners in other GBM and brain tumor organisations, we know that we are stronger together than apart. If we join forces we can ensure people with GBM have their voices heard.

TARGETED CAMPAIGNS
OBB plans to focus on each one of the points flagged up in the GBM Bill of Rights and push for its fulfilment. We will not rest until we see improvements in each of the 11 rights.
