Brain injury – The hidden disability

A brain injury can happen to anyone at any time. The effects are devastating and last a lifetime.  It can affect every aspect of you:  walking, talking, thinking and feeling and can mean losing the life you lived and the person you once were.  There are an estimated 500,000 people in the UK living with the long- term effects of brain injury. 

Through our free Nurse led Helpline, the Emergency Fund, Acute Trauma Support Nurses and our Group and Branch network we provide vital help to those affected by brain injury.  A regular donation will help to provide this much needed support.
