BrainLink’s first priority is to respond to the immediate needs of the families and friends of those who are living with an acquired brain disorder. Some of these conditions include stroke, head injuries, brain tumour and progressive neurological diseases such as Multiple Sclerosis, Parkinson’s disease, Muscular Dystrophy, Motor Neurone disease and Huntington’s disease.

Five years on, Damian is still learning about his brain injury journey. 💙

In 2021, Damian experienced a haemorrhagic stroke that changed his life in an instant. He spent two weeks in a coma, 32 days across two hospitals and faced an enormous journey of recovery.

But Damian made a choice: “Will I lay down and die, or will I get up and fight?”

He chose to fight.

Today, Damian continues to focus on growth, determination and finding ways to adapt to his “new normal”. A major part of his recovery has been finding community—and for Damian, that community has been parkrun.

After his stroke, Damian set himself the goal of completing 100 parkruns. He recently reached that milestone, using his achievement not only to celebrate his own journey, but to raise awareness of stroke and brain injury.

Fiona’s life changed dramatically at just 19, when a seizure led to the discovery of a brain tumour. Surgery resulted in a brain injury and significant changes to her mobility and independence.

But Fiona’s journey is a story of determination, adaptation and an ongoing commitment to living life on her own terms.

She returned to university, completed two degrees, became a teacher, travelled overseas, lived independently and continued working hard to maintain her strength and mobility. After further changes to her health meant she began using a wheelchair full-time, Fiona faced another period of significant adjustment.

Today, she continues to focus on the things that matter to her, maintaining her independence, staying socially connected, enjoying sport and spending time with family and friends. She also hopes to use her lived experience to support others living with acquired brain injury.

If there one thing Fiona would like the community to understand it is that all brain injuries are different and regardless of whether an injury is considered severe or mild, we are all human beings and deserve the same dignity, respect and inclusion as everyone else.

Due to today's severe weather, Paul Jamieson has postponed his 50km ride, raising funds to give people living with a brain injury a voice during Brain Injury Awareness Week.

In typical Paul fashion, he is determined to find an alternative time to achieve this goal, and we will be right alongside him when he does.

In 2013, Shey Webber’s life changed after an accident resulted in a traumatic brain injury.

After having to learn to walk again during rehabilitation, Shey later suffered a spinal cord injury following another fall—meaning she had to start over and learn to walk for a third time.

Today, Shey continues to work towards one of her biggest goals: standing and walking again with her physiotherapist or in the pool.

For Shey, those moments represent more than physical progress. They represent joy, independence and the possibility of doing more for herself.

Shey also speaks about the importance of connection. Her Brain Injury Matters peer support group has become a highlight of her week, giving her the opportunity to connect with people who understand what she's experiencing and help her feel seen and supported.

Her journey is a reminder that progress doesn't always happen quickly, and it doesn't always look the way we expect. Sometimes, it's about taking one small step at a time.

Over the past year, we have been privileged to have had the opportunity to collaborate with Paul Jamieson who has shared his incredible journey with our community. A major feature of Paul's recovery from a traumatic brain injury has been his progress in regaining his mobility and specifically, riding his modified trike.

His positive attitude and determination to achieve his goals has been an inspiration to us and those around him. During Brain Injury Awareness Week this August, Paul will be riding an incredible 50km to raise funds for BrainLink. Funds raise will support BrainLink's community initiatives, creating opportunities for people with lived experience to have a voice, build meaningful connections and foster greater understanding of life after brain injury.

As with many forms of brain injury, the effects of stroke can often be invisible and long term. The impact of stroke depends on which part of the brain is affected and the extent of the injury, meaning every person's experience is unique. While some effects may be immediately noticeable, others such as cognitive fatigue, memory difficulties, communication challenges and emotional changes may not be visible to those around them.

This Stroke Awareness Week, we're looking beyond what we can see and recognise the hidden challenges many people live with every day. A little understanding, patience and kindness can make a meaningful difference.

🪫 Ever feel like your brain battery starts the day on 2%?

For many people living with brain injury, cognitive fatigue is one of the most challenging and least understood symptoms.

It isn't about lacking motivation or "trying harder." Everyday activities like concentrating, having conversations, making decisions or being in busy environments can require much more mental effort than they did before the injury.
