#WearAHatDay

Today is national Wear A Hat day. This is a significant day to those suffering with brain tumours of to the family members of someone who has/had a brain tumour.

As you've probably heard me mention before Brain tumours are so underfunded that there has been no major break through in research since the 1960s. For people affected by Brain tumours this is  hugely frustrating  and means that so many lives have been lost unnecessarily.

Wear a Hat Day is not asking for donations (although any will be greatly appreciated) it is simply asking for your help to raise awareness. Without people like you raising awareness people won't know how desperately underfunded brain cancer is and how hard we have to work to get its plight out  there.

Last week saw millions participate in the no make up selfie  (and some of you men wearing make up) which was fantastic. This is a little less scary so hopefully we can get a lot of people involved. All you need to do is find a hat - any hat will be fine - and upload a selfie of you in it with the hashtag #WearAHatDay. If you follow red wellies on any form of social media please tag us we'd love to see them!

Donations can be made by visiting www.redwellies.info
