Public benefits
Trustees believe that our purpose satisfies the public benefit requirement. Brainwaves NI supports children and adults who are suffering or have suffered from brain tumours, and their families and carers in Northern Ireland without discrimination of age, gender, disability, sexual orientation, nationality, ethnic identify, political or religious
opinion. The benefit is the improved health and well-being for those availing of Brainwaves NI services and the brain tumour research it funds. These benefits are evidenced through internal service evaluation and formal and informal feedback from those who benefit from our services. Brainwaves NI purpose does not lead to harm. A private benefit to some trustees may arise from training in advocacy. Through this training, these trustees gain an awareness and understanding. These benefits are incidental and necessary to ensure the benefit is provided to our beneficiaries.
