Understanding Childhood Acquired Brain Injury [Virtual Workshop May 2025]

You may think that you do not know any children with an acquired brain injury, but due to the hidden nature of this disability, how can you be sure?

“Excellent course delivery – great structure – the trainer’s delivery is outstanding; delivering the course with such knowledge and empathy whilst still listening and valuing everyone’s input/experience/thoughts regardless of their background or experience. Overall quality of info in the course was perfect for someone with no background knowledge of ABI.”

Join our free and accredited interactive workshop online to explore the experiences of children, young people, and their families following childhood acquired brain injury and the challenges and issues they face.

“Really good study day and I like the interactiveness, information was also easily broken down and easy to understand.”

“It was really well presented and informative. Great to see so many people on the training to connect with.”
