For someone newly diagnosed with a neurological condition, life may become very lonely and frightening. People can lose control of their lives and many face unemployment, poverty and social isolation.
At The Brain Charity, we champion neurodiversity and help anyone affected by a neurological condition to pick up the pieces so they can rebuild their lives and achieve their potential.
A neurological condition is any condition that affects the brain, spinal cord or nervous system.
Many are well-known, such as stroke, dementia, cluster headaches and ADHD.
There are also hundreds of conditions that only affect an unlucky few, such as trigeminal neuralgia, Alice in Wonderland Syndrome and Huntington’s disease.
Some neurological conditions can begin suddenly, such as brain injury. Some you are born with, such as epilepsy. Others, like multiple sclerosis, can develop over time.
The Brain Charity is the only charity in the UK to be here for every single one of them.
The Brain Charity provides free practical help, emotional support, and social activities.
We support anyone with a neurological condition based in the UK, as well as their family, friends, and carers.
Unfortunately we are unable to provide medical advice, help people from outside the UK or support people with mental health conditions unless they also have a neurological condition.
