About The Sydney Driscoll Neuro-science Foundation

The Foundation was started in 1989 with a generous donation from Mrs Lucille Driscoll in memory of her late husband Sydney, who had been treated in the Department of Neuroscience at Preston in the 1960s by the first neurosurgeon at Preston; the late Mr Ken Tutton. She was delighted with the idea that the money which she had donated would be used to enhance neuroscience education and research. A Trust Fund was established as a registered charity and is administered by the Trustees who meet regularly. The late Mr Ken Tutton was one of the founder members of the Trust. Aims and objectives of the Trust. The aim is to build upon the Department’s reputation as a centre of excellence in the field of neuroscience, by continuing to develop and expand the facilities for education, training and research. These aims and objectives include a Neuroscience Library, an Annual Neuroscience Lecture, an Annual Neuroscience Award, support for Conference and Training Courses and funding for relevant Clinical or Laboratory Research.
