In this episode we are joined by Dominic Cassidy who is generously sharing his story of his recovery after his brain haemorrhage. And alongside him, we’ll hear from Claire Needham, from Brain Kind, the UK’s leading charity in helping people to thrive after a brain injury by providing innovative rehabilitation and ongoing support to ensure life after brain injury can be a life well lived.
Today, we will be covering:
What challenges survivors face
The emotional toll of returning to work or managing family life post-injury
The importance of redefining purpose and identity after something so life-altering
What support is available post brain haemorrhage
And what the pathway to recovery can look like

This conversation helps us better understand the challenges individuals (and their loved ones) face after a brain haemorrhage, so that we can explore how we can support them better.
