Not all disabilities are visible.

After a childhood acquired brain injury, a child may appear “fine” to others. Yet they could be experiencing:

• Extreme fatigue
• Slower processing speed
• Memory difficulties
• Sensory overload
• Emotional overwhelm

When these challenges are misunderstood, children can be labelled as difficult or disengaged.

Understanding the hidden impact of childhood brain injury changes everything.

We help families and schools recognise these challenges early, so children receive the right support.

Share this with someone who works with children.

This Carers Week, we're recognising the people behind the scenes.

The parents, grandparents, guardians and family members who coordinate appointments, advocate in meetings, explain the invisible effects of acquired brain injury, and keep going even on the toughest days.

Many don't think of themselves as carers. They're "just being mum" or "just being dad".

But caring for a child with an acquired brain injury often means taking on additional responsibilities that can affect every part of family life.

If this sounds familiar, we want you to know that what you do matters, and you deserve support, too.

💬 What's one thing you wish more people understood about being a carer? Share below.

💭 Fatigue after an acquired brain injury is invisible, but it’s very real.

For many children, concentrating, remembering instructions, or coping with noise can drain their energy fast. What looks like disengagement is often their brain working overtime.

With understanding, rest breaks, and the right adjustments, children can manage their energy and feel more confident day to day. Our ABI Coordinators support families and schools to put this into practice. 🧡

🧸 Hi, it’s me, Albie!

I know that for young people (and teddies!) living with an acquired brain injury, even small challenges can feel big. That’s why I’m so excited to tell you about our Brain Injury Info Card! 💳

This little card might be small, but it’s mighty. It’s the perfect size to tuck in your pocket or wallet, and it’s here to help young people aged 11-18 living with ABI feel more confident in tricky situations. 💙

🔹 How it helps:
This special card explains the often hidden effects of brain injuries: things like finding it hard to process information, remembering things, or keeping steady on your feet. Whether you’re at a train station, in class, or even talking to the police, this card can help others understand what you’re going through and remind them to be patient, kind, and supportive.

💌 How to get one:
Families can ask for a Brain Injury Info Card by emailing [email protected]. It’s completely free because we want every young person to have the support they deserve. 👉 Visit our website to find out more: https://childbraininjurytrust.org.uk/brain-injury-information-card/

💬 Know someone who might need this?
Please share this post and help me spread the word! Together, we can make every day a little easier. 💙

🎉 You did it! 🎉

Throughout May, you walked, ran, rolled, cycled, swam, scooted and moved your way through 5K May, helping raise vital funds and awareness for children and young people living with childhood acquired brain injury.

Every mile, every challenge completed, every donation and every conversation has made a difference.

Because of your support:

💙 £20 provides a family with trusted information and resources following a childhood brain injury.

💙 £50 helps a parent or carer access emotional support and guidance through a counselling session when they need it most.

💙 £250 helps connect families through community activities and peer support opportunities.

💙 £500 contributes towards specialist support via a full course of counselling for children and families navigating life after acquired brain injury.

💙 £1,000 helps us deliver vital services in hospitals and communities, ensuring families receive support when they need it most.

To every participant, fundraiser, donor, supporter and cheerleader, thank you. Together, you've helped raise awareness of childhood acquired brain injury, supported families across the UK, and shown that no child or family should face this journey alone.

We couldn't be more grateful.

From all of us at the Child Brain Injury Trust, thank you for making 5K May 2026 such an incredible success. 💙
