The Brain Charity
We help people with all forms of neurological condition to live longer, healthier, happier lives.
There are over 600 known neurological conditions, which affect the brain, spine and nervous system. 1 in 6 people in the UK have a neurological condition; some are well-known, like stroke, dementia and multiple sclerosis. Others, such as Alice in Wonderland syndrome and syringomyelia are much rarer, affecting only a handful of people.
We are the only UK charity providing specialist support for every single neurological condition. We champion neurodiversity and offer practical advice, emotional support and social activities to anyone living with a neurological condition – and their families, friends and carers too.

Our Vision
A world of protection and opportunity for children living alone and at risk on the streets.
Railway Children is an international children's charity. We fight for vulnerable children who live alone at risk on the streets, where they suffer abuse and exploitation.
In the UK, society often denies their existence, and in other countries the problem is so prevalent that it has become 'normal'.
They run away or are forced to leave homes where they suffer poverty, violence, abuse and neglect. They find themselves living on the streets because there is nowhere else to go and no one left to turn to. The problems they face on the streets are often even worse than those they endured at home. Every day we fight to change their story.
Railway Children race to reach children as soon as they arrive on the streets and intervene before an abuser can. Our pioneering work enables us to get to street children before the streets get to them.
