28 May 2025
Now we've had a moment to catch our breath, we think it's time to take a look back at World NF Awareness Month 2025. There's so much to spotlight, so many epic fundraisers, so many amazing events and unforgettable community moments.
Let's dive into the highlights!
Campaigns
Nerve Tumours UK spearheaded a number of campaigns for NF awareness in May, including a joint project with RBH which featured on train station billboards across the UK.
We are especially grateful to our Ambassador Emily Owen, who shared her thoughts and perspectives on a very special social takeover on NF2 Awareness Day.
Our Digital Campaign went live across the UK 16-22 May
