Story

In 2026 it will be 10 years since I acquired a brain injury.

Recovery has been long, unpredictable, and at times incredibly hard — but I’ve also been lucky. Along the way I found support, community, and understanding through organisations like Headway, which supports people living with brain injury and their families.

I now volunteer with Edinburgh Headway Group, and to mark this 10-year milestone I’m taking on the Glasgow to Edinburgh Ultra — 57 miles on foot in one go — to raise money for them.

It will be one of the toughest physical challenges I’ve ever done. Every mile will be for the people living with acquired brain, their families, and the staff and volunteers who show up every day.
