Who we are:

The Brain Charity offers emotional support, practical help and social activities to anyone with a neurological condition and to their family, friends, and carers. There are hundreds of different neurological conditions, including stroke, brain injury, dementia, cluster headaches, and many rarer ones too – we are here for every single one.

What we do:

Our mission is to enable all those affected by neurological conditions to live longer, healthier, happier lives. We will fight together for an inclusive and just society: a world where stigma, hardship and isolation are replaced by compassion and understanding. We offer a range of services within Merseyside & Cheshire including, but not limited to: counselling, welfare benefits advice, adult learning courses, confidence building courses, support groups for different conditions, employment support, carers advocacy, a legal service and supported volunteering opportunities. We also offer a national information & advice service which includes a library open to the public and a national helpline.

Why we need you:

Being diagnosed with a neurological condition can be a frightening and bewildering experience; many people face unemployment, poverty and social isolation as a result. Your generous donations and fundraising allow us to continue our vital front line services.
