Annual Conference – Weds 27th March 2013, Hilton Birmingham Metropole
When the Bough Breaks
As the title suggests – when families are faced with a child’s brain injury they often describe it as if ‘part of their family has broken’. This means that they need to cope in new ways to understand what has happened and to ensure that the family moves forward as positively as possible.
Our 2013 conference is your opportunity to learn about the issues that families face on a day to day basis following childhood acquired brain injury. The event will showcase findings from new evidence-based research, expert practitioners and the real life experiences of families living with the consequences of childhood acquired brain injury.
