Support

Support groups are a place for people with brain injuries, family and carers to give and receive both emotional and practical support as well as to exchange information. Brí support groups offer a unique opportunity for people to talk openly about brain injury and its impact. And don't worry – confidentiality is a central aspect of our groups. Ongoing attendance at the groups will give you a better understanding of the group itself and how it can help you. The caring and supportive nature of the groups allows attendees to talk and support each other.
