Across the UK, it is estimated that there are as many as half
a million people living with the long-term effects of brain injury.
Some of those people have disabilities so severe that they need
specialist care in a residential setting but the vast majority
live at home, with partners and parents and other family members
who take on the additional role of carer.
So, if someone close
to you has had a brain injury and you are now their carer, it
may be helpful to know that there are many people who have faced
the same uncertainties and anxieties that you may be feeling.
You are not alone and there is information and support available.
