Story

Danny Sullivan Group has chosen The National Brain Appeal as their charity of the year for 2021. Company founder and chairman Danny O'Sullivan's life was saved in 2017 at the very hospital the charity is dedicated to raising funds for, The National Hospital for Neurology and Neurosurgery in London, the UKs leading centre of excellence for treating diseases of the brain, spine and nervous system.

Danny spent five months at the hospital following a life-threatening brain haemorrhage resulting from a ruptured aneurysm. He needed emergency surgery and three subsequent operations, spent six weeks in intensive care, two weeks in the high dependency unit and a further three months on a ward where he needed intensive rehabilitation to help him to re-learn how to walk and talk. A ruptured aneurysm causes a subarachnoid haemorrhage, bleeding around the brain. It is a type of stroke and is life-threatening. It is thought around 50 per cent of people do not survive. Those who do survive can be left with long-term disability.

Danny Sullivan Group aim to raise £50,000 in aid of The National Brain Appeal this year.
