Acquired Brain Injury Ireland (ABII) is asking people in Drogheda and across Louth to raise some dough and bake a difference to support their work during Brain Awareness Week this March.
Community groups, schools, businesses, families and friends across County Louth are invited to host their own ‘Bake for Brain Injury’ fundraising event in March this year and help ‘bake’ the world a better place!
All puns aside, ‘Bake for Brain Injury’ is a hugely important event on the Acquired Brain Injury Ireland calendar, enabling the national organisation to raise vital funds to support survivors of brain injury as they work to rebuild their lives.
Every year in Ireland some 19,000 people acquire a brain injury, resulting in life-altering, dramatic change. These injuries happen suddenly and are often traumatic, caused by road traffic accidents, stroke, assaults, concussion and viral infections such as meningitis. Because each brain injury is unique, every survivor needs dedicated supports and a tailor-made rehabilitation plan.
Acquired Brain Injury Ireland offers that specialist care. As Ireland’s leading provider of community neuro rehabilitation for those ages 18 to 65, the organisation supports an estimated 1,100 people annually, as well as their families and carers.
In Drogheda, people are invited to support the Acquired Brain Injury Ireland bake sale to raise funds for the area on Friday, 24th March from 12pm to 4pm in Lisrath, Ballymakenny Road, Drogheda.
All are very welcome. For more information, contact Jamie Moore on 086 0677 878, or simply drop by on the day.
‘Bake for Brain Injury’ is one of dozens of events organised as part of Brain Awareness Week 2023. For more information and to register for all our events visit www.abiireland.ie
