For people who have suffered an acquired brain injury.
The ABI Navigation project is about supporting people who have suffered an acquired brain injury at the point of hospital discharge and helping them with setting and achieving their long term goals.
It all starts with a conversation where we will discuss your brain injury, the impact that it has had on your life and what your long term goals are. We will then develop a plan to help you achieve your goals and will help you with taking the initial steps for it.
I feel optimistic now. I’m definitely more confident with my injury. I had been so reluctant to let anyone know, but I learned that you shouldn’t be; it’s there and you’re getting the help.
Support with

Support for
Family members and carers
As well as affecting the individual who suffers from it, an acquired brain injury can have a profound impact on the family unit around them.
If your loved one has suffered an acquired brain injury, we understand that you require support too.

Understanding the impact
