Brain or Shine

Welcome to Brain or Shine, our channel giving an insight to living with brain injury. Whether you're a brain injury survivor or a family member, friend, carer or work colleague of someone who's suffered one, we're here to help.

Meet Mark and Jules, the creators. In 2012, Mark suffered a brain injury in a freak accident whilst on holiday. After returning to the UK, he was told that over 95% of people don't normally survive this level of injury but was discharged eight weeks later and told to live life as normal. We tried to do just that. However, nothing prepared us for the mental side effects that sustaining such an injury would leave.

We've come a long way on our journey, and we're very grateful to be where we are now. We want to reach, help, and support as many people as we can. We want to hear your stories and get to know your issues.
