1492 Brain injury peer support group drop in
Event description
My name is Jonathan Purnell, I am a brain injury survivor. In 1990, I suffered a massive Subarachnoid brain haemorrhage on 27.01 1990 I was to spend 3 years under the care of the consultant neurosurgeon. During which time, I formulated a mental image of what my new life should look like once I was discharged! The day finally arrived in 1993, “Discharge Day" . The reality was soon to hit me like a steam train as to the gravity of my near hopeless situation! My life had to be rebuilt completely from the bottom up. The main problem being, there were no readily available support services to aid me in my rebuild. So using my lived experience, I have created the 1492 group. I will be available to meet with others with similar health history
