The Brain Cancer Centre

The Public Diagnosis

Brain cancer is not like other cancers. Nearly 80% of those diagnosed won't make it past 5 years. Survival rates haven't improved in 30 years. Brain cancer kills more kids than any other disease. Despite these stats, barely anyone knows anything about brain cancer. So we created a campaign about the moment of diagnosis.

This usually private moment tells you everything you need to know about brain cancer, so we made one very-real diagnosis public. The film 'Room of Tears' explores the moment where Amy Stephenson's 19 year old son - Lachie - was diagnosed with brain cancer.
