WSSFN Congress Cape Town
The WSSFN Congress takes place in Cape Town from 20 - 24 November 2011. This congress is for the World Society for Stereotatic and Functional Neurosurgery. The Brain Tumour Foundation has been invited to exhibit and this is significant as we are the only charity represented.
It has been a challenge raising funds to get to the event. We have free brain tumour magazines, information on latest technologies as well as getting to know who the international doctors are.
Fortunately so far we have received the stand for free and a free dinner for the opening function from the organisers. We have also got free accommodation at The Commodore Hotel for 5 nights. Their accommodation is reasonably priced but the real bonus is that it is on the Waterfront in Cape Town!

None of our 'staff' get paid at this stage and most of the work Deirdre has done to date has been free. Thank you so much for the help thus far, if any one can offer donations, car hire and flights, it would be much appreciated.
Also, iRapid Consult is offering discounted professional opinions on MRI's and I will be writing about that shortly once we have finalised the arrangements.

Brain Tumour Fundraiser Tea Party 22 October 2011
Hi all!
Just to say that our Tea Party was a big success and fully booked! It was extremely encouraging to see that there were 7 brain tumour survivors that partook in the festivities. We had MANY sponsors of vouchers and prizes and I feel it is only fair that we mention their efforts. I will be putting their details on our "Supporters Page" in a few days once we have confirmed their information. Just to mention it was also my Grandmother's birthday- Auriol McMahon.
Thank you SO much!
