Basic Brain & Spinal Injury Centre have helped Thomas on his road to recovery, he is currently visiting weekly for his rehabilitation.

BASIC exists to serve people recovering from acquired brain injury and spinal injury and their families. The charity specialises in centre-based services for people who have undergone treatment for a traumatic head injury, brain haemorrhage, brain tumour, stroke or similar conditions. Their services also help people manage long-term neurological conditions. Last year their services helped over
hundreds of people living with life-changing brain and spinal injuries.

Basic have been impacted significantly by the pandemic and they rely on donations to continue the amazing work they do. Any money  raised will go along way in helping them continue their world-class rehabilitation programmes

“I first came to BASIC 3.5 years ago having had a brain haemorrhage... I'll say Salford Royal saved my life but BASIC has saved my mind. It's the most wonderful place... where you just feel at home and there's no pressure; you can just be yourself. People don't ask questions like,
what's the matter with you? Everyone is wonderful and friendly, staff are so supportive. I can't thank them enough for saving my life. Thank you everybody.” Over the years we have helped thousands of clients get back to work, walk and regain independence allowing them to live a full and fulfilling life.”
