When Casey’s daughter, Farrah, sustained a brain injury, their family saw firsthand how vital the right support + awareness can be. To give back, their friends + family came together: from a heartfelt walk to an incredible DJ event that raised over £900!

Does feeling safe/unsafe underneath affect your OCD? Do you think having a baseline of safety is important?

Hi April at al.,
Sometimes I feel like such a doofus (sp?). I mentioned before that I had a book named “The CBT Anxiety Solution Workbook”. I slowly started going through it, doing some exercises, filling out sheets, but I’ve been avoiding the main part. This week I went back. 1/2

THIS is what hope feels like.
Last night was just the first step toward the pro-equality future we deserve. We must build on this momentum by talking to our neighbors and organizing our communities.

Bonfire Night is full of fun, lights + fireworks, but for children with childhood ABI, the noise and crowds can sometimes be overwhelming.
Small adjustments, like wearing ear defenders, choosing quieter spots, or preparing children in advance, can help make the evening enjoyable for everyone.
