About us
Brí, Independent brain injury support and advocacy, is a small charity organisation that provides support, information and advocacy to people with brain injuries, their families & carers.
Brí is an Irish word that stands for strength and understanding.
Our Mission:
Our mission in Brí is to help one another with positive support and insightful information about living with brain injury, to advocate knowledgeably and independently. We strive to focus on improvements in self-support, medical care, rehabilitation, public awareness and prevention.
Our History:
Brí’s formation came from a huge public meeting in 1999 at the National Rehabilitation Hospital, Dún Laoghaire. The enormous lack or services and of awareness about Brain Injury were highlighted. People at the meeting unanimously resolved to join together for independent, informed, insightful self advocacy. Brí became a limited company with charitable status in 2003.
We are a company with charitable status. Our charity number is – 1488
