The guide explores a range of topics, including what an acquired brain injury is, how brain injury can affect a person and those around them, health and wellbeing, communication, returning to everyday activities, available support, and money and legal matters.

Drawing on best practice and the expertise of Brainkind’s specialist teams, the guide is designed to support people with brain injuries, their families and carers in having informed conversations with healthcare professionals and understanding the support available to them.

Throughout the guide, real-life stories and experiences provide personal insight into life after brain injury, offering reassurance, practical advice and hope for new beginnings.

“I hope that the information in this guide helps you to feel empowered.”
