Why BrainLink Matters: Our specialist support is important to people impacted by brain injury. The impact of brain injury on someone's life can be severe. We help people navigate this experience and move towards a place where they can live fulfilling lives by connecting them with the right supports.

Melanie says, "I used to paint, and my dad was a painter too. Art and craft has always been an important part of my life but after my brain injury I had to re-teach myself to paint, I feel like I'm starting from scratch again. But I am hopeful that returning to painting will be a good relaxation tool for a brain that never turns off" . Melanie's stunning art work features on our front page.

Linking in with other carers can be an amazing support. No-one better understands the highs and lows of the caring role better than some-one who is in that role. Some of our carers have formed lifetimes friendships from group activities where they have met other carers who understand what you are going through. Our aim is to support you, the carer, so that you can maintain your caring role.
