At SameYou we have 3 significant projects we are working towards in collaboration with rehabilitation clinicians and neuroscientists.

Many people find it hard to believe that almost 1 in 3 people will experience a brain injury and need recovery support at some point in their lives. Despite brain injury impacting more people than either dementia or breast cancer, brain injury is seldom discussed. Which is why this Giving Tuesday, November 30^th, SameYou and Seva.Love are launching an NFT for Good to increase awareness and raise funds to improve access to brain injury rehabilitation.

Survivor Stories

On the 21st March 2019 the actor Emilia Clarke shared her deeply personal experiences of having two cerebral aneurysm bleeds. She spoke of having two neurosurgeries and the consequent neurological symptoms such as losing her speech, pain, fatigue and the psychological impact. Emilia realised she was not alone and that others had experienced similar things. So she asked you to tell her your story - and you and your loved ones responded with stories of your pain, loss, resilience and recovery, just like Emilia.

On this page, survivors, carers, friends and family share their personal experiences of acquired brain and traumatic brain injuries.
