Awareness 

Some folks at my local Headway group have blogs/sites Tom and Raymond plus a guy I know from the wider internet Brain Damaged Baron (Facebook) are attempting to raise awareness of brain injuries and the various charming conditions. I suppose in a way so I am I! Though for myself it’s mostly a sound board!

Brain Injury is remarkably common, about the same as heart attacks but it’s a much less sexy, so the public knowledge is remarkably lacking, and due to funding i.e. Lack of it since it’s a blank cheque, of on going possibly limitless funding/care rather than a clear pathway, with clear funding/prognosis etc.
As ever there are amazing number of conditions and disabilities so expectations that people would know every one is not realistic but brain injury is quite a common condition most are mild clearly, but even so complaints that it’s under funded and lacks public knowledge is fair statement.
