EVERY 90 SECONDS someone in the UK is admitted to hospital with an acquired brain injury (ABI). There are many possible causes, such as a fall, a road traffic accident, an assault, a tumour or a stroke. A brain injury can happen to anyone, at any time. When it does, we're here to help

Story

In 2016 I tried a different sport every week for the whole year; 52 sports, 30 of which I had never played before. 

My review of the year:

Top three: Basketball, Real Tennis and Track Cycling
Best newcomer: Spikeball
Toughest: Man vs Horse Cross Country run
Failed: Karting
Nailed: Netball
Most painful: Shin kicking
Most embarrassing: Gymnastics
Strangest: Underwater hockey
Most welcoming: Boxing
Most likely to keep playing: Squash, and lawn bowls in about 30 years time

Proudest moment: bagging a long-range hoop at croquet
