📅 When: Commencing Friday 29 January 2027 for 10 weeks, last session Friday 9 April 2027

🎃🐶 Our regular furry friend at the Northern Hub is getting into the Halloween spirit!

He’s been rocking a pumpkin costume this season, and we’ve loved seeing the smiles he brings to our clients, staff and visitors.

Turns out a pumpkin suit and a wagging tail is a truly spooktacular combination!

🧠 Today we recognise World Stroke Day, raising awareness of stroke and its impact on individuals, families and communities.

A stroke can change a person’s life in an instant, with impacts that may affect movement, communication, thinking, memory and independence. Recovery looks different for everyone, and access to appropriate rehabilitation and support can play an important role in helping people navigate life after stroke.

At Brain Injury SA, we recognise the importance of sharing knowledge, raising awareness and exploring approaches that support people throughout their recovery journey.

As part of this year’s Brain Injury Awareness Week event, Stronger Together, Associate Professor Brenton Hordacre presented on the Stroke Bootcamp — an approach focused on stroke rehabilitation and recovery.

This World Stroke Day, we invite you to watch his presentation and learn more about the work being undertaken in this area.

🎥 Watch the presentation on our YouTube channel, Brenton's segment starts at 9:05 → https://ow.ly/snGQ5100lOQ

🧡 Happy Occupational Therapy Week!

This year’s theme, Participation Matters, highlights how being able to participate in the things that matter to us is fundamental to our health, wellbeing and sense of belonging.

At Brain Injury SA, our Occupational Therapists work alongside clients living with an acquired brain injury to support their participation in everyday life. This may involve developing strategies for daily activities, building skills, adapting routines or exploring new ways to work towards personal goals.

Participation looks different for everyone. Our OTs work with each client to understand what matters most to them and support them to engage in the activities and experiences that are meaningful to their lives.

This OT Week, we recognise and celebrate our Occupational Therapists and the important role they play in supporting our clients to participate in the things that matter to them.

🧠 It's Invisible Disabilities Week

Not all disabilities are visible, and for people living with an acquired brain injury, some of the most significant challenges may not be immediately apparent to others.

Everyday tasks can take more energy, remembering information may be difficult, and concentrating or communicating can require extra effort. These challenges may not be visible from the outside, but they can have a real impact on a person’s daily life.

At Brain Injury SA, we recognise that every person’s experience of brain injury is different. By building awareness, listening to lived experiences and approaching others with understanding, we can help create a community where people feel seen, heard and supported.

This Invisible Disabilities Week, let’s remember that we can’t always see what someone is experiencing. A little understanding, patience and compassion can make a meaningful difference.
