Introduction to BANA
The British Acoustic Neuroma Association (BANA) was formed in 1992. BANA is organised and administered by people affected by acoustic neuroma, is a registered charity and exists for mutual support, information exchange and listening.
In 1997 we received 3-year funding from the National Lottery Charities Board. This enabled us to set up an office and employ a full time Co-ordinator. We are now funded entirely by our own fundraising efforts.
