Action for Brain Injury Week 2012
14-30 May 2012
Caring for someone with a brain injury
Brain injury doesn't just affect individuals; it can transform the lives of entire families. Emotional and behavioural changes in the individual can affect relationships and the dynamic of the family. There may also be physical demands on the carer, while a loss of income can add additional stress to the family.
Caring for someone with a brain injury can require a great deal of patience and sacrifice. This year's Action for Brain Injury Week will highlight the issues surrounding caring for someone with a brain injury while providing practical support to those who need help.
More information on activities and events during the week will be announced on this website in due course.
Hats for Headway Day
As always, the highlight of Action for Brain Injury Week will be Hats for Headway Day, which this year will take place on Friday 18 May 2012.
Put the date in your diary and look out for information on how your company, organisation, school or college can get involved!
