Marie Peacock, head of network for Headway, said: “BRAW gives people the opportunity to get together with friends and acquaintances, old and new, to try out
activities that they might not have been able to access before.
"All of the activities across the weekend are selected due to their therapeutic benefits and positive impacts on people’s wellbeing. The weekend, being catered for people with brain injury, gives people who might not otherwise get much opportunity a chance to enjoy a ‘short holiday’.
